The Jill Stringham Band was formed in March 2009. Things fell together so quick and easy that they had their first show on April 17th 2009 @ Studio Joe (an acoustic style coffeehouse in West Little Rock) IT WAS STANDING ROOM ONLY!! Since then this band has played various local venues. The Jill Stringham Band is known for their 'unique' choice of cover songs....they will turn rap to rock.....80s to rock.....old school R & B to ROCK!! They are a ROCK N ROLL BAND who loves to put their twist on well known cover songs! Their original music consists of songs written mostly by Jill Stringham, however the addition of each members style and 'FUNK' does not go unoticed. This band is often noted as 'HIGH ENERGY and PASSIONATE'.

JILL STRINGHAM - Lead Vocals ; Guitar - Jill Stringham is a singer/songwriter and Ovarian Cancer SURVIVOR!! Born and raised in No. Little Rock, Arkansas. Jill had always had deep passion for music and writing as a child but mainly kept it tied to poetry she kept to herself and the bathroom mirror with a hairbrush microphone. Jill had SO much energy she needed to release through music just didnt know how! Somehow she picked up the guitar in her early 20s (thanks Heidi Edgar) and began turning her poetry into songs.

LEEANN SADLER - Bass ; Vocals - Leeann grew up in a family of multi-generational musicians, thespians and dancers. Her mother who was her early seed of inspiration taught voice and piano for many years. Leeann has played in several bands and/or funtcion thoughout her musical career. She loves playing in a group environment and brings her own style to band. Her bass guitar touches on lead riffs adding a 'stylistic' bottom to each song.

BECKY HAYNES - Drums ; Vocals - Becky Haynes has been playing on anything that made sound since discovering pots, pans and coffee cans in her home town of South Haven, MI. Her parents totally supported her passion for music and started buying her drumsets after she crawled up on the stage at a family wedding and played with the band at the young age of 7. Becky also began writing poetry at a young age which only fueled the desire to create and play original music that touches all genres.
