White Water Ramble w/ Reveredn Paytons Big Damn Band
WhiteWater Ramble High-Octane, Rocky Mountain DanceGrass Formed in 2004, WhiteWater Ramble's high-octane DanceGrass/Jamgrass is deeply rooted in bluegrass, funk, jazz, swing, rock, reggae, country and blues while exploring the musical boundaries of these genres.
The quintet's makeup of mandolin, acoustic guitar, fiddle, upright bass, vocals and drums fuel it's tightly improvised material. As much as the band creates its own style, the style creates itself. The music is dependent on the moment, honest, and respectful to the road behind.
WWR has had the privilege of opening and sharing stages with Karl Denson's Tiny Universe, Dark Star Orchestra, Tony Furtado, Lotus, Splitlip Rayfiled, Members of the String Cheese Incident, DJ Logic, On The One, The Eric McFadden Trio, The David Grisman Quintet, Railroad Earth, Larry Keel and Natural Bridge, Benny Galloway, Jerry Douglas,the Broke Mountain Trio, The Open Road Bluegrass Band, Micheal Franti & Spearhead, and Newcomers Home.
Along with the diverse genres, the band also brings an intense energy to the stage. ~ The Summit Daily News

WhiteWater Rambles strongest point is versatility in style. While often billed with bluegrass bands, the band is not bluegrass in a strict sense. Bluegrass is merely one tool in Whitewaters shed to get the booty shaking. ~ The Rocky Mountain Bullhorn
Their debut album, Red Alert! Live, is a live compilation album and has opened to high acclaim and rave reviews. See what the critics are saying.
You got funk in my bluegrass! You got bluegrass in my funk! WhiteWater Ramble is one of the hardest working and technically talented bluegrass bands in the area. ~ The Fort Collins Coloradoan
Red Alert Live is an impressive exercise in jamming, song writing and musical energy, and much like the WWR live experience, will have you coming back for more. ~ The Scene Entertainment Magazine
