Neon Blue (Paperback)

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles NEON BLUE is a five-piece indie country rock band from Bancroft, Ontario, Canada. The band is fronted by singer/songwriter/bassist Mark Doney and drummer/harmony singer Sean Doney. Together the brothers independently funded the debut NEON BLUE self-titled cd and released it to the European radio market in 2005. The brothers continue to make changes to their act, adding new musician/ performers to the band as well as new original songs to their already extensive catalogue. The Doney's remain as the vocal core of the band in 2010. Country Music News (a monthly publication considered the voice of Country Music in Canada) describes their debut, self-titled album as "having a rootsy, down home feel, that ranges from early country/rock sounds of The Eagles to the more traditional laid back feel of The Good Brothers." Their first single "Thank God for the Simple Man," off their debut album was released to Europe, Japan and Australia in early September 2005. Since its release the song, an ode to Mark Doney's father Murray Doney, has appeared on country music charts throughout the world.
