Orlando Americana Band 2

Drawing inspiration from historic JUG bands of the 1920’s and 30’s as well as the darker side of Blues and Rock n’ Roll, this Orlando Americana Band carves out its own niche in a genre of music that has never seen such an incarnation.

In 2012 this Orlando Americana Band received critical acclaim both in the US and Europe with their first LP which includes 13 diverse tracks (12 Originals w/ One ACDC Cover) that try to capture the antics and energy of their live performances while upping the production value, thanks to seasoned Producer, Justin Beckler. When released the Album spent 7 weeks on the CMJ Charts, and was also Nominated for Album of the Year on SavingCountryMusic.com.

This Orlando Americana Band's music currently can be heard on over 100 Radio Stations in 12 Countries and is also featured on several successful movies, such as Rockabilly Zombie Weekend, the Graveyard Feeder and Cool as Hell.
