Echo Valle Road at the Nugget, winery show tickets on sale

A sound new to locals will grace the stagebar lounge at the Pahrump Nugget this weekend.

Echo Valle Road, otherwise known as ‘EVR,’ plays your favorite songs from back in the 50’s up to the current hits of the new millennium.

The band is Tony Valle’s brainchild and he is the founder and leader. In the 70s, Valle broke away from a former group and hand-picked his own musical troupe forming his own handpicked musical troupe.

Other members include Jordan “Jo” Hudson, who performs vocals, plays bass, guitar and keyboards and is the heart of the band.

Gil Santini performs vocals and plays guitar. He was barely out of high school when the band first formed, Gil was nevertheless Tony’s only consideration for guitarist.

Angus “Shay” Goodman sings and plays drums and other percussion instruments. Goodman is EVR’s newcomer. He is the youngest member of the band.

The music begins at 8 p.m. both tonight and tomorrow night.
