To best describe them: think of the song -writing style of The Dave Matthews Band, the storytelling themes of Bob Dylan, the Jam/Improvisational feel of The Allman Brothers Band and the passion of Stevie Ray Vaughan. They have built a loyal following since the band was created in 2001. With 30+ original songs written and rehearsed and just as many cover songs, Red River Soul has a lot of entertainment to offer. Their first self-titled CD has earned them 'Band of the Month' over at ModernRock.com . The same songs were always be found in the top 40 of the The MP3.com Groove charts and now are featured on many similar mp3 sites.

Red River Soul is an Acoustic-driven Rock band that proves you can still rock without loud and heavy distortion! Fronted by Jim Hedrick (the lead singer/songwriter) and his acoustic guitar, Red River Soul can not be dismissed as just another Acoustic Rock band. Each member has a diverse list of influences covering many genres. Kent Johannesen provides backing vocals and a unique style of bass guitar. He takes the low end of the rhythm section and effortlessly switches between laid back bass notes to walking lines and funky slap-n-pop. Frank De Nigris plays electric guitar covering lead and rhythm duites. Adding his own vibe stemming from the Blues, Classic Rock and Jam Rock, Frank blends in sleazy Blues chords with Bluesy feel and passion. Nate Dobas is the director of this four part rhythm section with a degree in Jazz percussion. He plays many styles and different drumming techniques and is a master of the fishca technique.

With thier homebase in Connecticut they share their passion with audiences around New England. Red River Soul is not just about original songs, they have a huge catalog of cover songs too.

Management/Guitar Center Battle of the Bands, finishing in first place. Playing around New England, Red River Soul has had the pleasure of jamming at various venues and special performances.
