Sidewinder

Established in 1994, Sidewinder has built a reputation as a "southern rockin’, psychobilly, hard drivin’ outlaw country blues party band", penning several catchy original songs that celebrate life in rural America. Sidewinder also takes old classic songs you know and love, adds a little gunpowder and gasoline to crank out an in your face version that would make Hank Williams Sr. and Ronnie VanZant start tapping their toes if they were standing here today.

Sidewinder Band has become a favorite in the biker communities all over the Midwest, playing shows at many of the bigger bike rallies, including Bike Weeks in Myrtle Beach and Ohio, and EasyRiders Rodeo
Chillicothe. Sidewinder has played on some of the biggest stages, and opened for many national touring artists including Travis Tritt and Josh Gracin (of American Idol and pop country chart fame). Sidewinder Band, by mixing a strong southern rock back ground and a deep rooted country background, has put together an "In your face, hard hitting dixie-fried down-home redneck rock’n’roll show" that you cannot miss!
