REBEL RIDERS

Not your average POP Country!

About Me


The Rebel Riders team up with New Englands best Musicians to bring you The Very Best In Country Music with a Classic sound! The Idea Is to play Country Music, of any era, and keep the Traditional, Original & Organic sounds that make this style of music Unique. The Ingredients are: Convincing and Sincere Vocals, the Pedal Steel, the Upright Bass, Acoustic Guitar, Kickin' Pickin' Leads and the Swingin’ Rhythms on a Modest Drum Kit...
You'll hear The Rebel Riders play music from the 1940's thru Today. Yes they will play Today's Country but it WILL SOUND CLASSIC. No over produced sounds here. No Rock with a Pedal and a Drawl. Country is a life style as well as an attitude. They deliver.
Country Music has roots in early traditional Folk music, Celtic music, Blues & Gospel music. As it evolved it took on different names such as Western Swing or Hillbilly music. In the 1970's Country Music produced the sub genre deemed "Outlaw Country". The Rebel Riders relate with artists from this genre such as Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, David Allen Coe, Merle Haggard and Hank Williams Jr. They will play any Era of Country but you'll hear it through the filter of Outlaw.
You want a good time? Put on that Belt Buckle and Cowboy Hat and come out and join them.
