About Me


I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V3.6 !
Howdy, folks! Obviously, you are at the home of Jerry King and the Rivertown Ramblers . We could tell you where we've been and what we've done but that would take alot of time for you to read and me to type. To make a long story short, we have played with a lot of great bands and quite a few rockabilly legends in our five or so years of existence. We have recorded at Sun Studio, Jewel Records, and Wild Hare Records, and played at the major US weekenders. Also, we have been released on several different compilations that I have now forgotten the names of.
The current members of the band are myself (Jerry King), Dave Johnson, Jeremiah Brockman, and Will Weigand/ Jason Roeper. We love rockabilly music and try our best to keep the tradition alive. There are alot of great rockabilly bands out there today, and Cincinnati has some of the finest bands in the country in that respect. Most of the music that we record is written by us and we give it our best to stay as traditional as possible in our song writing. Most importantly, we have alot of fun playing, meeting new friends, and hanging out with old friends. Thanks for everyone who makes an effort to come out to see us play around the country. A special thanks goes out to those around the Tri-State are who have seen us play a million times and keep coming out to support us, and you know who you are. If anyone needs to contact us our email is [email protected]; my phone number is 812-599-0715. Thanks for taking a minute to swing by our profile and give us a look-see. God bless you all, Jerry King
