   About John Bolten
played banjo and drank shine in the ultimate country rock extravaganza- The Plowboys. formed the short-lived gritty folk band while in SC- Drifter Stills. Moved to the outskirts of DC in 2006 and is letting the stillness of the burbs sober his frenzied heart. has been called a "songwriter's songwriter", a "downright swell guy", and a "heartless bastard" all in the same night. Playing with Amy J. Sullivan and the Whiskey Darlings. A bit of an alt-something whiskey soaked band with tunes that would make Woody proud.
