This band of seasoned musicians is dedicated to the legacy and legends of Americana and Roots music, performing a mix of original and cover songs. Based in the Verde Valley of Northern Arizona, the band is fronted by Don Whitcher on lap steel guitar and backed by
Joe Neri on guitar, Gregg Gould on bass and Wing Ryan on drums.


Don Whitcher
is a prolific singer-songwriter and one of the best slide players in the Southwest. He was signed to 95 North Records in 2004 with his previous band, Slant 6 Cowboys, who charted in the Americana and Roots Country charts. Don’s music takes you on an exciting train-ride to places you can only dream of. A voice like cool clear water; guitar playing that smokes and drives a coal burning rhythm and songwriting that could make an outlaw cry. Don is adept at many facets of Americana music, whether he is evoking the haunting echoes of a Mississippi night on slide or the biting edge of a Texas thunder storm on steel guitar. He paints music like the plaintive cries of old ghosts sweeping down from North Dakota into a Southwestern monsoon. Don Whitcher's music on Soundcloud and YouTube.

Joe Neri is well grounded in folk, blues, country and early rock 'n' roll music. He is the consummate sideman, playing both acoustic and electric guitar, adding some nice complementary slide playing to Don's lap steel.

Gregg Gould is the rock-solid bass player that every band needs, who also plays guitar on some of the band's songs. He is a multi-instrumentalist (guitar, bass, harmonica, percussion) equally at home playing everything from spiritual hymns to rock 'n' roll to country blues.

Wing Ryan is one of the most versatile drummers in Northern Arizona, whose experience with and mastery of many different musical styles and genres adds depth and taste to his performances.
