Junkyard becomes country music club on Friday nights
From the Williamson County (TN) Review Appeal
During the week he runs Binkley’s Junk Yard on Horn Tavern Road, but every Friday night he becomes lead guitarist of the Junkyard Band, a homegrown band that plays at Binkley’s Country Music in Fairview.
Every Friday night the doors open at 7 and people young and old from as far away as Clarksville drop in to hear the band play until everyone has left.
Dan Binkley has been playing music since he was a child. Everyone in his family plays an instrument or sings; his dad plays the harmonica and his mom plays the drums, turning family gatherings into a backyard version of the Grand Ole Opry.
Ronnie Dell was once a member of the Junkyard Band. He played keyboard until he moved on to Tootsie’s and eventually began playing with Dell Reese. Both Brad Paisley’s and Gene Watson’s steel guitar players also once played with the Junkyard Band.
