Rollin Whiskey

Rollin Whiskey

Rollin’ Whiskey is not your usual country band. They will shake the foundations with pure energy and the excitement of modern Country/Rock. Add some tender and heartfelt country ballads, some well known country/rock covers and you have the outfit for all occasions.

Rollin’ Whiskey is an independent Country band from Northern Illinois with many years of experience in the music industry.

The band has developed a great sound with two dynamic lead singers, punchy guitar tones supporting their multi-harmony vocal delivery, and a tight groove generated from the engine room. With five singers in the band, Rollin’ Whiskey has the smoothest harmonies around.
Their shows include a good mix of modern country/rock covers designed to keep the audience on the dance floor.

In their live shows they include covers from artists including: Jason Aldean, Dierks Bentley, Miranda Lambert, Carrie Underwood, Luke Bryan, Big & Rich, Gretchen Wilson, Zac Brown Band, Sugarland, Florida Georgia Line, Pat Benetar, Darius Rucker, Maren Morris, Blake Shelton, Chris Young, and many more.

Rollin’ Whiskey has played shows from the largest festivals to backyard parties. You may have seen them at Country Thunder, ByronFest, Old Settler’s Days, Lincoln Highway Heritage Fest, Roscoe Fall Festival and have shared the stage with the likes of Josh Thompson, Lady Antebellum, Luke Bryan, Billy Currington, Frankie Ballard and Jerrod Nieman.

Fresh Horses – Garth Brooks Tribute
Jul 4 @ 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm
Fresh Horses - Garth Brooks Tribute

FaceBook

Fresh Horses, a high-energy show that features songs of Garth Brooks is the ultimate tribute to the country legend. Named from the 1995 album that featured ” The Change ” a song dedicated to families of the Oklahoma Bombing is a song that deeply impacted Smith. The band has received excellent reviews and developed a huge fan following. The lead singer of Fresh Horses Garth Brooks Tribute is Les Smith, who looks and sounds so much like Garth that many who have seen the show forget they are watching a tribute band. Les says he has heard about how much he looks like Garth for years, especially after he cut his hair and put on a cowboy hat when he began playing country music nearly 20 years ago. He began performing Garth’s songs casually with five other band members until he was approached by an agent who encouraged him to improve the act and take it on the road as a tribute to Garth.

They have performed throughout the United States and Canada ever since. Les says their particular fan base is smaller communities as they seem to have a “die-hard love of country music and Garth Brooks”. Fans can also expect to hear not only Garth’s most popular songs, but some that may be less recognizable as well. “Ive had the priviledge to sing music that has a meaning and message behind it, that’s a rare thing theses days..”

Coming from a heavy rock background Smith identified with the passion and live performance of Garth Brooks and admired his flame for bringing a new live sensation to country music.

Current Projects:

Sound System Upgrade. It’s fantastic!!

We have upgraded the sound system for our shows. We acquired a state of the art digital system to enhance the experience at the bandshell.

This is a unique opportunity for a sponsor(s) to  have the naming rights for the sound system for a period of time to be discussed. Each performance, each notice sent out, each program guide, and each social media posting will include the named sound system for the sponsor.

This is a projected $25K expenditure that will give us and the sponsor a long term benefit.

Please contact us directly when you are interested.
