Each member of Renegade Rail comes from a very musical background and are influenced by many different artists and genre's of music. Influences include Skynyrd, AC/DC, The Beatles, KISS, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, John Bonham, Billy Powell, Cross Canadian Ragweed, and our own family members. Each member of Renegade Rail incorporates their own style from their influences to make the unique sound of Renegade Rail. From Rock and Roll to even some Ragtime.... Renegade Rail. We respect each and every musician that gets their name out there and puts their heart and soul into music.
The four members of Renegade Rail bring everything they have musically to the table – combining influences as diverse as bluegrass and straight-forward rock and roll to create their own brand of highly energetic, groove-laden, “blue collar music.” Self-described as an “outlaw country band with southern rock and red dirt influences,” Renegade Rail leaves audiences across the south with ringing ears, melodies running through their heads and the inescapable feeling that someone gets it. And they all want to hear more.
The group has worked their particular brand of magic in clubs and bars around Georgia, Wyoming, South Dakota, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas, and Louisiana naming among their favorites the Wormy Dog Saloon, The Snorty Horse Saloon and The Beaumont Club , as well as any venue large or small that respects original Red Dirt music. They have performed at a variety of large festivals in Kansas and Oklahoma, including the Country Fever Fest in Pryor (OK) and the Winfield (KS) Country Roundup. Featured as one of Mavrik Magazine’s “Artists on the Rise,” the guys in The Rail have performed with notable acts including Hank Williams, Jr., Dierks Bentley, Chris Cagle, Jason Aldean, Trent Tomlinson, Molly Hatchet, The Kentucky Headhunters, The Randy Rogers Band, Charlie Robison, Kevin Fowler, Stoney Larue, Cross Canadian Ragweed, and Bleu Edmonson.
Recently receiving much-deserved airplay and national exposure on XM Radio’s X-Country, and many Clear channels throughout the Midwest. The Rail’s album, Ragged, produced by Mike McClure, (who is considered to be THE producer for Red Dirt music and a pioneer of the genre) is filled from start to finish with screaming electric guitar licks interlaced with acoustic guitar, hard-driving vocals and songs that speak about life. And not a life whitewashed by the elusive “they” searching for a radio hit – but real life, lived to its fullest by the four men driving this train down that Renegade Rail.
