The alternative/retro rock band Tris & The Goldmine Band was founded over a shared love of the “golden” era of rock-and-roll music. Based in Pensacola, FL, the band’s members hold music degrees and/or are lifelong, multi-instrumentalists who have been performing professionally for the last decade. In the summer of 2020, Tris Weeks, Chris Crowley, Max Levesque, and Jensen Cadenhead combined forces to create Goldmine. Since their beginning, the band has been playing at festivals and venues all around the Great Gulf Coast area. Their sound can best be described as classic 70s rock meets alternative rock, with some influences of pop, funk, and folk.
Tris & The Goldmine Band just released their debut EP with the Nashville producer of the music of Kelly Clarkson and Mumford and Sons. It’s now available to stream everywhere. Find it: “City of Tomorrow EP" by Tris & The Goldmine Band.

 

Byron Daniel and the Five Dead Dogs was formed on the porch of a house on the banks of the Blood River. The goal was to create music that combined the culture and landscape of Southeast Louisiana. We've come to call this sound "Rural Infused Sweat Rock." What is RISR? It is a combination of classic rock, country, R&B, funk, psychedelia, and other modern sounds that permeate today's airwaves. The band formed around Vocalist and Guitarist Byron Daniel - soon came Drummer Christian Colonna, Guitarist Clay Wilson, Bassist Monroe White, and Keyboardist Andrew Ates. This combination of unique, high-caliber talent has made this band an electrifying live music experience for anyone who loves - and lives - rock n' roll.
