"How about these Collins Brothers? These guys rock! I don't normally get a chance to listen to our opening act, but I couldn't help but listen to these guys. I could hear ya'll (the crowd) rocking and cheering all the way out on my bus!" (Live @The Governor's, Chattanooga, TN)." - Darryl Worley
"Will these guys break out? I would say sure. A regional band with national aspirations. Technically proficient, as musicians go, with strong stage presence. A deadly combination that spells "recording contract". Do yourself a favor and check them out now. Eventually you'll be handing over that sweaty wad of cash to TICKETMASTER, instead of "bubba" at the door." - Ultimate Communications
"I first caught The Collins Brothers Band at a local venue and was immediately impressed with their sound and stage presence. They played a variety of songs from Country to Rock & Roll, adding their own unique style while mesmerizing the audience. They've consistently come through for me, playing concerts, and stepping to the plate in sticky situations with a helpful and cheerful attitude, even with short notice. I'd wholly recommend them without reservation for any event "
Tom "The Bomb" Blevins - Road Rash Magazine
"It was hot... hot and more hot this past weekend down at Ross's Landing at the 2005 H.O.G. Chattanooga Rally. While there was an abundance of talent there, my wife and I spent about 4 1/2 hours (3 sets) under the fan cooled Fat Boy Tent listening to The Collins Brother's Band. We were amazed at the "tightness" of this group of guys. Having played guitar for the past 45 years and in a number of bands ,I envy pay compliments to the musicianship and pure talent of this band. My hat is off to you guys and thanks so much for a weekend of wonderful music." - Hiawassee Review
"I really dig your sound. Just by listening to your songs you can tell that you have fun doing what you do...it's the sense that your live show would be fantastic. It's lyrically significant while maintaining a strong instrumental element. Don't forget us once you strike it...and you're not far from that!" - Josh Brandon - WOWF Radio Program Director

Bio
Voted as one of the top 32 Nationwide Artists in 2007 CMT Music City Madness Video Promotion, it's understandable why they play to sold-out shows in Atlanta, Nashville, Washington DC, Richmond, Myrtle Beach, Knoxville, Mobile and Chattanooga.
Whether you see them on stage with Nashville "Heavyweights" like Montgomery-Gentry and Ronnie Milsap, or headlining on the club and festival circuit, you will remember when you have seen and heard a Collins Brother's show! Their energetic blend of sibling harmony, showmanship and stage appeal is a favorite of people all over the Southeast.
What began as a simple dream of brothers Joe and Cory Collins has turned into a music career of packed venues and enthusiastic fans. Though they have had no formal or classical training in music, their sheer natural talent and love of entertaining has driven them beyond their own expectations.
After beginning as an acoustical act (Joe on Guitar and Cory on Harmonica), fans quickly let them know that they had something special. As the crowds and venues grew, so did the band. "We added one piece at a time over about a six month period, trying to compliment what we were already doing. People were asking for more so we gave em' more. The next thing we knew, we were booked as the opening act for the legendary Gene Watson and a packed house at The Governor's in Chattanooga, TN. We've been rolling ever since!"
While the brothers bleed country through their original offerings, the make-up of the entire band permits a blend of several styles. These "Blue-eyed" guys can do it all! The band's top-notch musicianship, songwriting and stage presence allows them to be a very diverse and exciting band!
As imagined, influences run wild through this group. Alabama, Stevie Ray Vaughn, John Mellencamp, Merle Haggard, Eagles, George Jones, Steely Dan, George Strait and Charlie Daniels are just a few of the wide array of musical heroes.
The Collins Brothers have shared the stage with such legends as Ronnie Milsap, T. Graham Brown, Earl Thomas Conley, Gene Watson, John Anderson, John Conlee and Billy Joe Royal. They have also played with many of today's Nashville stars like Andy Griggs, Darryl Worley, Jessica Andrews, Montgomery-Gentry, Jimmy Wayne, Aaron Tippin, Trick Pony, Confederate Railroad and Charlie Robison.
Their goals are simple; "We want to be the best that we can be! Just show us to the stage, say 'when' and hold on!"
