It all started when…

There was this party - you know, one of those friendly Texas Hill Country get-togethers, where you have a couple of beers and someone pulls out a guitar… and all of a sudden you’re ready to hit the road with your tunes, right? So, on this particular night, a bunch of us fun-loving friends were over at Steve’s and Gloria’s place having a belly-laughing good time; Steve grabbed his bass, Gloria and (founding member) Bruce were on guitars, and Gail got behind the drums. Somewhere in that first tuneful jam between the free-flowing beer and “we sound awesome”, Gloria, Steve, Gail, and Bruce kinda smiled. We’d all jammed together plenty of times before, but this felt different: we might just have something here.

Our good friends and singing galpals, Jamie & Laurel came on board to add more vocals, trumpet and percussion, and with Philip Graves on viola, has brought a whole new dimension to the band. Over the years, although we’ve played with other bandmates who moved on to other projects, the Ramblewoods nearly 10-year adventure continues, because there’s really nothing better than making and playing music with friends!

We are The Ramblewoods and we hope you enjoy our Hill Country-inspired tunes as much as we enjoy playing them for you!
