  • Bio

    ...... .... The Phantom Riders formed in 2000. After picking a bunch of cool cover tunes to play, we started to write our own tunes as well as develop our sound and style. Very quickly we began to play live shows with other local bands and open for established bands who came to town like The Paladins and Cadillac Angels... Two years later with the help of fellow musician and entrepreneur Charlie Vartanian, we recorded and released our debut CD "The Phantom Riders" which has received excellent reviews both online (Phil Dirt's Reverb Central) as well as in print (VCReporter, WetSand Magazine)... Following a 2 year hiatus, The Phantom Riders are back on the scene..... .. ....

    Hey The Phantom Riders,

    This dog house here is mighty small
    But it's sure better than no house at all
    So ease it on over
    Drag it on over
    Move over cold dog cause a hot dog's moving in



    hope to see ya soon
