Artist Information

Biography

The Colt Six sit at the intersection of classic country, old school R&B and rock-and-roll. More soul than alt.country, more twang than rock, and more rock than R&B, they have a modern Muscle Shoals sound. The Colt Six released their first EP, Palomino, in November 2011, and immediately got noticed by commercial, college and online radio stations and publications. They have rapidly built a following in New England and the Mid-Atlantic regions, and have become a favorite at festivals and at clubs with their spirited and intense live show.
