The Rusty Gun Revival has stepped back in time, back to the time of honky tonk and juke joint music. Our goal is to put on a show of pure character bearing excellent music and musicianship. Our live show is a ?high energy?, highly engaged performance that wins fans everywhere we go. We play songs that music lovers and club owners can?t get enough of. If you take the influence of Johnny Cash, Hank Sr., early Elvis, Blind Blake, Bob Dylan and Social Distortion and mix it all together, you get the sound of The Rusty Gun Revival. Our appeal reaches to all age groups and all walks of life. We play, write, and live Americana music. To us this means a little bit of blues, honky tonk, folk, bluegrass, rock-a-billy, country, punk all on one stage. We call our blend of music ?Punkry?, a new term to fall under the wings of Americana music.
This family band made up of four brothers and a sister-in-law is one of the most versatile country-rock bands in the country. They have pleased crowds across the country with their blend of music from almost all genres. The father of these talented musicians has been inducted into the Old Time Country Music Hall of Fame so the brothers have strong country roots and include roots music in their shows but having grown up during the great rock era they also play classic rock like you want to hear it. Hold on! That's not all. You want to hear Frank Sinatra or Nat King Cole music. They got you covered. Would you like to see a tribute to the music of "O Brother Where Art Thou" or a tribute to "ZZ Top" then search no further. You want ot hear great brothers harmony, this is it. Literally this is one of the most exciting bands you will ever see or hear.

As front man in this band, his performance will get you entertained right from the start. Amy is our lead female vocalist and also plays the keyboards. Once you hear her sing, you'll understand why she has been performing for years. She was born to perform on stage. Darin is our bassist and also sings harmony vocals. His style on bass guitar is 2nd to none. Him and his bass will leave you tapping along with the beat to all songs. Mel, our lead guitar player has a style you won't believe. His licks are very melodic and range from chickin pickin to rock guitar of the 70's and 80's. You won't want to miss his playing ability. Ron wraps up our line up on the drums. He has been playing drums since being a young man. His excitement behind his kit will keep you focused on him during the show. We find that we have tremendous flexibility when it comes to song choices. Having a male and female lead singer gives us diversity over many bands that don't take advantage of this opportunity.

Founded in 1992, "Smokin Joe" set out to be a band that brought the hot new country music of the nineties to central Pennsylvania. The bands driving motive was to create a show that would blow people away. Anyone who saw the band perform would tell you that they accomplished what they set out to do. Performing, primarily in clubs and taverns, in the early years, the band attracted a loyal following. Over the years, the band has evolved into a new band, and has moved the show out of the clubs, and onto the fair and festival circuit. Smokin' Joe has been North Central Pennsylvania's hottest country act and has carried that distinction into the new millennium. "The Wild Horse Band" provides hard driving "smokin" country music ."Smokin Joe" and The Wild Horse Band have opened for country music stars, Charlie Daniels, Ty England, Daryl Singeltary, and Ken Mellons to name a few. The band specializes in the music of Garth Brooks, The man who has defined country music of the nineties. Talented lead singer, Joe Meholick, does an exceptional job on songs by Alan Jackson, John Michael Montgomery, Dwight Yoakum, and Montgomery Gentry. These guys are not new comers. In addition to Joe's 31 years of experience, the band adds a combined total of 172 years of musical experience!
