The Wallace Brothers Band will bring their self-described psychedelic-country music to the Pickering Creek Inn on the evening of Saturday November 22nd. The Philadelphia Weekly says, "With a sound that falls somewhere in the murky alt-country camp, The Wallace Brothers Band certainly knows how to keep a crowd entertained. Their past showcases have had enough sweet harmonizing, guitar twanging and whiskey shots to make even the staunchest flannel-wearing hillbilly proud."
Two twin brothers, Zachary and Colby Wallace and their Vietnamese cohort, Khoa 'Lucky' Pham, are not who you might expect to be writing and performing songs about sleeping in a car, being broke and happy, love so strong it hurts, traveling the world, and spending the night in the pen, but the band sure enough does live the life they sing about. Their wanderlust and love of all forms of music can be heard in their music and lyrics. Formed in 2007 through serendipitous circumstances, The Wallace Brothers Band performs roughly 200 shows per year and are equally as capable crooning in bar rooms as they are headlining festivals. Both, Zachary and Colby are songwriters and play the guitar and drums, respectively. Accompanied by their honorary brother, Pham on the pedal steel guitar, along with rotating bassists, Mike Hlatkey and Paul Wilkinson.
The band has had the honor of working with and/or sharing the stage with David Bromberg, Rusted Root, Ricky Skaggs, Robert Hunter and Tom Constantine of The Grateful Dead, MOE., Mickey Melchiando and Claude Coleman of WEEN, Evan Dando of The Lemonheads, Leon Rhodes of The Ernest Tubb Texas Troubadours, Railroad Earth, Cabinet, Frog Holler, Junior Brown, and many more.
