Baltimore Rockers Federal Hillbillies Enter Americana Scene with EP, Local Tour

As an early [hillbilly] Christmas present, we’re introducing you to the Federal Hillbillies, who just released an EP steeped in good old-fashioned American heartache and steel guitar (you can thank us later!).

Whiskey To Wine, their debut EP, is available to stream on Soundcloud here.

The band is on tour early in January, stopping for these gigs in Maryland:

Jan 03 ~ Metropolitan Kitchen & Lounge, Annapolis, MD

Jan 04 ~ Smokin’ Hot Bar & Grille, Glenwood, MD

Jan 08 ~ Waterfront Hotel, Baltimore, MD

Jan 10 ~ River Hill Sports Grille, Clarksville, MD

Yeah, we agree, it’s not fair that Maryland gets to have Federal Hillbillies all to themselves, ‘cause their raw, earnest, rootsy sound need to be heard by more ears, so keep your fingers crossed that these boys take their show on the road and spread the love into your neck of the woods soon.

In the meantime, check them out on their website, on facebook, and on twitter.
