Hardware was once the stock-in-trade of Pittsburgh’s Bindley family, manufacturers, and wholesalers who set up shop at the turn of the 20th century. Just as the city itself has transformed, so has the Bindley name: For today’s Bindley Hardware Co., the nuts and bolts are the makings of song and Jon Bindley is proprietor.
A writer by training, he headed south to Nashville to play with a friend’s band in 2011 and honed his songwriting craft as an acolyte of venerable songwriter Fred Koller, known for penning hits with the likes of John Hiatt, John Prine, and Shel Silverstein. Upon his return to Pittsburgh in 2014, Bindley began to develop his artistic identity, that of a workingman’s songwriter. Since then the band has released two full-length albums and an EP to great critical acclaim, touring regionally while also serving as the house band for the ever-popular Pittsburgh Honky-Tonk, a monthly country music revue.
