Georgia Music Awards Country Band of the Year Nominee Russ Still and the Moonshiners were today’s fresh Market Music concert guests.   The show performed by 6 members of the band featured original songs, exceptional vocals and music.  

Artist Statement:

In an industry that currently thrives on auto-tune, drum machines and pop templates, Russ Still and the Moonshiners brings some light and authenticity to the radio waves. The seven-piece outfit meshing country, country rock and classic rock formed their roots in Atlanta, Georgia and are triggering the interests of listeners tailored to staples such as the west coast sound of the 70s including The Eagles and Poco, Southern Rock including Marshall Tucker, country super group – Alabama and new country rock and outlaw country like Zac Brown, Jason Aldean and Jamey Johnson. There’s something here for everyone.

The band consists of front man Russ Still (vocals, guitar, keyboards), Ben Still (guitar), Cam Still (keys), Chris Hinson (guitar), Ed Usher (bass, vocals), Kevin Pinson (drums) and Rachel Rowland (vocals, guitar). With three records under their belt including The Mission: Music (2006), The Russ Still Project (2013), and White Lightnin’ (2014), it’s safe to say that the band’s sweet country breath pays tribute to its rock and roll ancestors with its prominent silky yet honest vocals, bellowing guitars and keys, and a steady rhythm section.

According to Tony Copley, CEO of LEDGE 7 Entertainment, “Russ Still’s music is like a well-crafted bridge for the listener to cross back and forth freely between country and classic rock. If you want to stop in the middle to fish… his music has provided all of the hooks you will need.” What completes the bridge of the versatile singer is the flexible support of the band. Together, Russ Still and the Moonshiners work to provide a sustainable and fulfilling entree of rock history with a fresh and catchy twist.

The band has appeared at reputable venues including Hard Rock Cafe in Atlanta, Smith’s Olde Bar, Steve’s Live Music in Sandy Springs, the Mall of Georgia in Buford, and they have even appeared at major events such as the Coweta County Fair, Pensacola, FL's New Years Eve Pelican Drop and The Tri State BBQ Festival in Dothan. 

With collective music industry experience dating back at least forty years, Russ Still and the Moonshiners are in no place to be stopping now. With quality music paired with quality musicians (and quality people) the band is sure to be stirring the hearts of many future country and rock fans to come.
