Muscle Shoals, Alabama has enjoyed a long and successful music tradition. From the time the Swampers put this vibrant city on the rock and roll map, Muscle Shoals has played an integral role in the on-going evolution of contemporary music. Now a Muscle Shoals rock band named BLACKLAND appears ready, willing and more-than-able to add another chapter to their home towns noble rock and roll history book.
As proven throughout the bands history so far, members Mark Pyle, Max Williams, Steve Chandler and Terry Oldham have fully absorbed influences ranging from Lynyrd Skynyrd and Led Zeppelin to the new rock sounds of Nickleback, Alter Bridge and Metallica and have filtered them all through their own unique musical perspectives. The resulting musical brew is a true feast blending bold guitar power, blues driven vocal fury and cutting-edge writing into a brand new sound. This is rock and roll that stands head and shoulders above todays field of cookie-cutter rock and cover band practitioners. BLACKLAND delivers the goods with passion, power and precision.
Formed in 1997, the band purchased the East Avalon Recorders studio in Muscle Shoals in 2002 and relocated back to the Shoals area from South Carolina. The band continues to record and perform throughout the Southeastern United States.
Blackland has worked with Lynyrd Skynyrd, Michael Angelo Batio, Seven Nations, Decipile, Johnny Q. Public, Jackyl, Blackfoot, Southern Rock Allstars and a few others. Blackland is endorsed by Dean Guitars and we are very proud of that. Please visit our page @ www.deanguitars.com/blackland.php.
One of the things that we are most proud of is our history of sticking to the original music for that is is what it is all about and our track record of being professional and easy to work with.
We hope you enjoy our band and our music.
BLACKLAND
