Southern Reverb

Artist Information

Biography

Southern Reverb delivers a potent blend of Southern Americana focused on the lost art of actually writing good songs. The members of Southern Reverb have been lighting up the stages of Texas & Oklahoma together and separately for over 15 years. Throughout a variety of musical collaborations, their paths wound, weaved and eventually coalesced. Southern Reverb's music is a rich, fresh sound derived from a concoction of old and new, incorporating southern rock, blues, americana, 90s grunge and pop propelled by driving rhythms, high-energy riffs, great harmonies and featuring slide guitar. Live shows demonstrate the band’s collective musical intuition as spontaneous, new arrangements and exciting jams transform each performance into a unique experience. While the creation and presentation of original songs lies at the core of Southern Reverb’s existence, the band enjoys bringing the familiar sound of classic cover songs to listeners’ ears as well. Paying homage to original arrangements by their musical heroes topped off with SR’s signature stamp is yet another of Southern Reverb’s fortes. With their 5 song EP nearing release and a full album of new material to follow shortly thereafter, Southern Reverb’s songs will soon reach the ears of old friends and many new ones.

This band has plenty of touring experience, working on their new CD, and will be back at the Zone in April.
