Rollin Whiskey

Rollin’ Whiskey is not your usual country band. They will shake the foundations with pure energy and the excitement of modern Country/Rock. Add some tender and heartfelt country ballads, some well known country/rock covers and you have the outfit for all occasions.

Rollin’ Whiskey is an independent Country band from Northern Illinois with many years of experience in the music industry.

The band has developed a great sound with two dynamic lead singers, punchy guitar tones supporting their multi-harmony vocal delivery, and a tight groove generated from the engine room. With five singers in the band, Rollin’ Whiskey has the smoothest harmonies around.
Their shows include a good mix of modern country/rock covers designed to keep the audience on the dance floor.

In their live shows they include covers from artists including: Jason Aldean, Dierks Bentley, Miranda Lambert, Carrie Underwood, Luke Bryan, Big & Rich, Gretchen Wilson, Zac Brown Band, Sugarland, Florida Georgia Line, Pat Benetar, Darius Rucker, Maren Morris, Blake Shelton, Chris Young, and many more.

Rollin’ Whiskey has played shows from the largest festivals to backyard parties. You may have seen them at Country Thunder, ByronFest, Old Settler’s Days, Lincoln Highway Heritage Fest, Roscoe Fall Festival and have shared the stage with the likes of Josh Thompson, Lady Antebellum, Luke Bryan, Billy Currington, Frankie Ballard and Jerrod Nieman.

Palmyra-Eagle Community Band @ Phoenix Park Bandshell
Jun 29 @ 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm

“The Salute to Lady Liberty”

It began as a gift to Mrs. Lincoln. Today it is a background prop for selling car insurance. It’s meaning remains undiminished! The Statue of Liberty stands as “The lamp beside the Golden Door” as it welcomes all to “the last best hope on earth”! The generations that came through Ellis Island saw this marvelous edifice as their first glimpse of freedom! It is the enduring symbol of “We The People”!

In honor of our nations independence, we take a musical salute to Lady Liberty. Nearly every great American composer has honored her: Bernstein, Miranda, Williams, Rogers & Hammerstein and Sousa. A rich “red white and blue musical tapestry” of American Music will recount her timeless story.

A “Star Spangled” evening of patriotic joy awaits one and all. Bandmaster Ed Pierce promises to bring all of the musical talents of the Palmyra-Eagle Community Band to bear to bring to audiences a truly “Star Spangled Flag Waving Night”! On hand will be various instrumental soloists, our magnificent dance team, the superb “Kettle Moraine Blues” and the majestic vocal talents of our soloist in residence Kim “Kimbirdlee” Fadner.

Come one and all for an evening of music designed to move every American heart.

Sound System Upgrade. It’s fantastic!!

We have upgraded the sound system for our shows. We acquired a state of the art digital system to enhance the experience at the bandshell.

This is a unique opportunity for a sponsor(s) to  have the naming rights for the sound system for a period of time to be discussed. Each performance, each notice sent out, each program guide, and each social media posting will include the named sound system for the sponsor.

This is a projected $25K expenditure that will give us and the sponsor a long term benefit.

Please contact us directly when you are interested.
