Back pOrchEstra offers Indie and roots rock and the American Roots that inspired it (country blues, Americana, singer-songwriter, cajun, western swing, TexMex and Louisiana music). This combo, sprung out of the pandemic in 2020 and going back to the basics, started with just guitar & drums, then fiddle, and grew into a string band that delivers rich acoustic tones and has developed a unique, catchy, funky, moody sound, drawing from the varied past and delivering originals and reworked classics by Hank Williams, Taj Mahal, Dan Hicks, JJ Cale, Big Al Anderson, Big Bill Broonzy, Jimmy Reed, Joseph & Cleome Falcon and Bobby Charles. Comparisons have been made to the music of NRBQ, The Band, Asleep At The Wheel, Dan Hicks, Buddy & Julie Miller, Jesse Ed Davis and Levon Helm.
Their debut album, “Voices In My Head (Genre Whiplash)” arrived in 2022 and has songs from all over the map… originals with 60s, 80s and 1920s roots, plus Roots Rock, Americana, country blues, Western Swing, and Cajun, music and made the Top 100 Albums at Alt.Country Specialty Chart.
Guitarist Tim Eschliman (who has played with Etta James, Commander Cody, New Copasetics) leads this ensemble, which features drummer Bowen Brown (who has played with John Lee Ho**er, Tommy Castro), fiery violinist Candy Girard (who has played with Tanya Tucker, Clint Black and Jerry Garcia), Beau Beaullieu (who has played with California Honeydrops) and Jackson Allen (who has played with Narada Michael Walden).
They were a lot of fun when they played The Hall last year!
