A Night of Thanks in the Blue Ridge with Chamomile & Whiskey and Will Overman Band

About Chamomile and Whiskey: Chamomile and Whiskey is intoxicating. The hot young group has taken whiskey soaked americana and blended it perfectly with irish , old-time, and gypsy stylings. Since releasing their debut full-length album "Wandering Boots"  (County Wide Records) they have been tearing up and down the east coast playing powerful original songs with a punk rock ferocity. 2014 saw the band make debut in many cities across the country including Nashville, New Orleans, and Chicago, while continuing to play in familiar territory such as New York, Philadelphia, and DC.

2015 has been the band's busiest year to date. They have continued to tour heavily with a Rocky Mountain run in June and appearances at numerous festivals including The Tilted Earth Music Festival, FloydFest and the Festy Experience. In November the band will embark on their first west coast tour before returning home for a Thanksgiving show at the Jefferson Theater in Charlottesville. With a sophomore album on the way the group continues to unveil new material. Revered for their live performance, a Chamomile and Whiskey show is a rowdy affair of boot stompin' and partner swingin'... best served with a shot of whiskey.

"This band has so much going for it: smart original tunesmithing, interesting cross-genre pollination and richly textured sonics..." - New York Music Daily

"We may be on the verge of a new era in Country Music and Chamomile and Whiskey are helping to lead the Charge." - Daytrotter

About Will Overman Band: The music of Will Overman Band — call it “amped-up folk rock” — is as energetic as it is passionate. It can be haunting and evocative — traits characteristic in the magnificent single “The Gravedigger.” — yet sincere and sweet.

Musically and lyrically, the band draws from its Virginia roots, producing a rare combination of enticing harmony and straight-ahead, hard-charging rhythm and riffs.

Or, as one fan put it, “hearty as a home-cooked Southern meal.”

The band is composed of Overman, on guitar and vocals; Daniel McCarthy, guitar; Brittney Wagner on vocals; J Wilkerson on bass; and Christopher Helms, drums.

Drawing comparisons to The Avetts and Jason Isbell, the band carries an unwavering commitment to its music — and to its fans. That music and those lyrics, as the Huffington Post wrote, seem to draw “ … from the experiences of someone much older.”

Soulful and unforgettable. Addictive and sometimes playful. Meaningful and real. Those factors, plus a transcendent passion and unyielding commitment to craft, are what truly define this rising, must-see group of talented young musicians.

“a voice that is authentic and relevant... If there was room in front of the stage before, it is all but a memory awash in the flood of two steppers, three steppers, high fivers and even a couple of swing dancers.” –RVA Magazine
