BIRD DOG and the ROAD KINGS.

Originated in 1973 they are still trucking today and hitting on all cylinders. Through the years they have traveled most of the southeastern United States. New York City, to Key West, Florida. Austin, Texas to Nashville, Tennessee and all of the Eastern Shore of
Maryland. All of the states and a lot of the cities and towns in between. White collar, blue
collar, concert halls to honky-tonks, deck bars to outdoor arenas, private parties and weddings, they’ve played em all.

Bird Dog Wheeler (rhythm guitar & vocals) and Billy West (lead guitar & vocals) have
been performing together since 1975. In 1982 they were joined by singer-song writer
and bass guitar player Charlie Briddell. Greg French the drummer rejoined the group
in 1994. The four-some are enjoying their music and camaraderie more than ever and ever so evident in their sound, performance and overall professionalism.

Their 6th. album is out – “Bona-fide, Certified, Basic Eastern Shore Redneck USA” - Momma Where Am I, Ice Cream Ain’t Got No Bones, Formerly Informal, Old Dog New Tricks and Rebecca – Live At The Avalon. – Are the other 5.
