This group of cousins is just what their name says: “young”. They are all 18 and under and “Country” is what they do. They started jamming together in 2013 and enjoy putting their own twist on older and newer country songs. The band consists of three siblings, Laveana Klassen on lead vocals and acoustic guitar, Briana Klassen lead vocals, Brentten Klassen bass guitar, and cousins Steven Wiebe lead vocals and drums, and Eric Klassen on lead guitar. Young Country has performed at several music festivals and talent shows as well as for senior citizens in an extended care home. All five band members live in the community of Prespatou (Fort St John) B.C.
