The Eli Young Band will bring the first leg of its “Keep On Dreamin’” tour to George’s Majestic Lounge this Wednesday night (Feb. 15). This country band of four college buds from Texas has so much going on, it seems everybody wants a piece of them.

The current nationwide tour started in January and ends in Las Vegas on April 28 with 21 other headline shows in between. In addition, the EYB will take two weeks in March to support Tim McGraw and Faith Hill’s nationwide Australian tour in March.

The Eli Young Band is still floating high from its first American County Music nominations: Vocal Group of the Year and Single Record of the Year and Song of the Year, both for their single “Crazy Girl” from the band’s latest album, Life at Best. The awards are April 1.

As if that wasn’t enough, the band has been picked by Rascal Flatts for “The American Band Tour,” which launches June 15 in Hardford, Conn., and also includes Little Big Town and Edens Edge.
