Vandoliers are a Texas-based band blending country rock, Americana, and cowpunk, recognized for their distinctive musical style and extensive touring. After forming in Dallas in 2015 and rapidly establishing their distinctive blend of country rock, Americana, and cowpunk, Vandoliers garnered critical acclaim for their high-energy performances and innovative sound. Founded by Jenni Rose following the dissolution of her previous band, The Phuss, the group quickly assembled a robust sound with producer John Pedigo and musicians from local folk and metal bands, leading to their first demos. The band’s debut album, ‘Ameri-Kinda,’ initially a self-release, was re-released in October 2016 after Vandoliers signed with State Fair Records, marking a significant step in their professional journey.
Vandoliers continued their momentum with their follow-up album, ‘The Native,’ released in May 2017. Recorded in the iconic studio used by Willie Nelson for ‘Red Headed Stranger,’ the album cemented the band’s position at the forefront of a burgeoning cowpunk resurgence. This success led to extensive touring, including prominent opening slots and support tours with renowned artists such as Reverend Horton Heat and Old 97’s. In 2019, Vandoliers released their third album, ‘Forever,’ through Bloodshot Records, further expanding their reach with co-headlining dates alongside Cory Branan and opening for Lucero during comprehensive national tours.
Vandoliers consistently deliver compelling live performances and produce original material, affirming their status as a resilient and vital force in the contemporary Americana and punk rock landscape.
