August River Band offers a wild and beautifully juxtaposed chemistry between the tortured singer-songwriter, the classically trained violinist and the hard-hitting rock and roll drummer. The main genres for August River Band are Folk Rock, Roots Rock N' Roll, alternative/Indie Rock.
A 5-piece outfit that’ll punch you right in the gut. Tightly arranged odd time signatures dissolve into soaring choruses which unapologetically push the boundaries of genres, whilst maintaining a soulful beckoning of the dark and the beautiful.

As a follow up to their live studio album ‘Thank You Pain’ in 2020, August River Band has been working hard writing new music and growing. No showcasing as 5-piece roots rock n’ roll band, August River Band have released a highly anticipated, new studio EP late last year, with 4 fresh singles that will bring modern listeners into the golden age of recording music.
Hearing August River Band for the first time, you may find yourself thinking Roy Orbison was fronting an unplugged Faith No More show with Stuart Copeland on drums.
Prepare yourself for cinematic lyrical noir with dark tales full of imagery from a lost Cohen Bros script, odd-time metal riffs played on acoustic guitars, soaring, and swooning classical violin layers underpinned by heavy dub rock basslines, harmonies and a heavy dose of poetic romance.
