Famed Nashville songwriter Harlan Howard once said, "Country
music is three chords and the truth." The Whoreshoes, an up-and-coming
country music band, would agree. This energetic female quintet,
based in the San Francisco Bay Area, scorns "contemporary country"
and celebrates the roots of country music.
Camilla, Joni, Lala, Emily and Diana come from varied backgrounds
of music, but their mutual love for the time-honored songs of American
old-time music and early honky-tonk country brings them together.
Multi-instrumentalism is a trademark of the band: banjo, fiddle,
guitar, lap steel, mandolin, ukulele, honky-tonk piano, upright
bass, accordion, washboard and spoons are all featured in their
music. Added with their sweet harmonies, and infectious original
tunes, The Whoreshoes evoke the best of a bygone era and bring that
boot stomping, hollering spirit direct to you!
