The Whiskey Saints are four guys in a rock outfit based out of Los Angeles, California. Directed primarily by melodic, lyrical pieces about being a young band struggling to find luck in the city of angels, which often yields themes of a melancholic nature, their various influences of modern alternative rock, country, indie pop, and classic American & British rock have shaped their unique yet accessible sound, which is best described as a clash between the lights, noise and pulse of the big city combined with an approach to music rooted in rural alt-country and folk.
They have one released record to their name, an all-acoustic album entitled "The Bootleg EP" released in 2007 through CDBaby/iTunes Intl. They are currently finishing a full-length album and documentary titled "From The Backyard," which will be available in early to mid 2008.
DISCOGRAPHY: THE BOOTLEG EP is available for sale!Six Original Songs from The Whiskey Saints, including "Under Los Angeles" and "I Need Some Luck."
OUR ALBUM IS NOW AVAILABLE WORLDWIDE on iTUNES!
