Blending the needed standards to keep our audience dancing and having a good time, but add a unique and eclectic list of songs that will keep our fans coming back for more to see what we can pull out of our trick bag. We attempt to play the best tunes from the greatest era's of rock music from the '60's, '70's and '80's; Classic Rock, Electric Blues, Hard Rock and Instrumental Jams, with a touch of modern pop thrown in to keep our sound fresh. On any given gig, we will have local guest musicians sitting in with the band to add their own flavor and style to our shows.

One of the Washington D.C. area's top honky tonk bands, The Backroads Band brings a vintage country sound to their original songs and classic country covers. In no time at all, they'll have you out on the dance floor doing a boot scootin' two step or snuggling up close for a buckle polishing slow tune. Their sound is classic from the 1940s-1970s with a song list ranging from The Everly Brothers and Chuck Berry to Patsy Cline and Hank Williams with a dash of Bob Wills thrown in.
