About Vendor 

Learn more about this vendor for your event.

3 Chord Rodeo is an Austin band with deep roots in vintage country music. Comprised of musicians who have been performing for thirty years, their beautifully blended three-part harmonies, energetic stage presence, and great dance music make an evening with them just plain fun! The band members are all veterans of the Austin, Nashville and California music scenes. We perform regularly on the dance hall and club circuit of Central and South Texas. We also keep very busy performing at weddings, private parties and corporate events. The band was created in 2012 by long-time Austin friends and musicians Bobby Dabbs (lead guitar) and Greg Scarborough (bass guitar and vocals). California native Lauren Ellis (steel, lead guitar and vocals) joined the band shortly after moving to Austin from Nashville, where she toured with Rita Coolidge, Rosie Flores, Rick Trevino and former Monkee Peter Tork. Since then, we have added Nashville sideman and Austin resident, Brent Wilson (rhythm guitar). Brent's resume includes appearances on the Grand Ole Opry and working with such country music legends as Johnny Bush, Charlie Louvin and Austin's Wagoneers. Rounding out the band is Austin, Texas native Bill Mansell on drums. Bill has performed with Jubal Clark (Willie's Picnic '79), Bill Carter, The Desires, The Lift, Lou Ann Barton, the Argyles, and Jake Penrod. You never know who may drop in; Earl Poole Ball (piano) and Jon Kemppainen (fiddle) are also regular guest performers.

Corporate FunctionReviewed on November 29, 2023From Austin, TX

Bob and the rest of the band were AMAZING - both to work with ahead of time and at the event itself. As our needs changed, he was very flexible, and delivered a fantastic event that my constituents are still talking about. A huge thank-you to 3 Chord Rodeo for a fantastic event!

Cocktail PartyReviewed on August 5, 2022From Austin, TX

This group of kind humans were a joy to work with. They were so good at reading the room and getting everyone engaged into the music at this usually stuffy reception. I couldn’t have been happier with my choice. You can’t go wrong hiring them. So many compliments from the attendees. Thank you 3 Chord Rodeo for sharing your amazing country music talent here in Austin!
