The result is a boiling pot of American cultures; a wonderfully fresh and quirky kind of pop music that combines Delta-meets-Appalachia song-writing with a big, big beat.Their 'Riverboat Soul' album went straight to the Number 5 slot on the influential American indie roots chart and stormed the Top Ten of the Americana UK chart as well and entering the Red Lick Blues and R&B Chart, published by fRoots magazine. The South City Three are: Ryan Koenig (Washboard, Harmonica), Adam Hoskins (Guitar) & Joey Glynn (Upright Bass).The new album "Middle of Everywhere" debuted at #3 on the Euro Americana radio chart, determined by over 75 radio DJs from around Europe!They have also just realeased a 7" on Third Man Records (Jack White's Label).Book your seats now!
