About The Band
---------------------------
Founded in 1987, The Whiskey River Band is an original Connecticut
band, playing the finest Southern Rock north of Dixie. They were 4-
time winners of The New Haven Advocate's (local A&E paper) "Best Of"
for Southern Rock/Country music - by enough of a landslide to cause
them to retire the category for several years. Although they primarily
play Southern and Classic Rock, they also incorporate Blues, Funk and
Soul into their sets. Over their 20 year career, they've shared the
stage with bands like Charlie Daniels, The Outlaws, .38 Special,
Johnny Winter, Marshall Tucker, Lynyrd Skynyrd and The Doobie
Brothers. The Whiskey River Band's music is currently on heavy
rotation on internet-based station AllSouthernRock.com and on podcasts
throughout the world.

Media reviews include:
---------------------------------

"A blitz of melody and harmony, reminiscent of the Allman Bros. They
boogie with the best." - Meriden Record-Journal

"Fans of Lynyrd Skynyrd and the Outlaws will love this band." - Relix
Magazine

"I live in GA and would swear you guys were local boys from down the
road. How do a bunch of guys from CT end up playing Southern Rock like
that?" - Jim McBride, Bottle O' Blues.com

"One of the region's noteworthy sextets. Tour de Force musicianship!"
- Torrington Register

"These guys are the consummate party band...Be prepared to have a
great time." - The New London Day

"They are the real deal...you hear influences of Ronnie-era Skynyrd
and Blackfoot, yet, they are from Southern New England!" -
