For over a decade, Rum Drum Ramblers have bridged the gap between pre-war string band country blues and post-war city blues, with a blend of deep-welled influences, instrumental prowess, and raw feeling. Mat Wilson (guitar, vocals), Ryan Koenig (harmonica, washboard, mandolin, fiddle, vocals), and Joey Glynn (upright bass) have recorded two studio albums and have become one of St. Louis’ most celebrated roots outfits through their dynamic, feel-good live performances.
Since forming in 2006, the Rum Drum Ramblers have been honing their original St Louis string band blues in barrooms, clubs, street corners, listening rooms and festivals. Powerful dual lead vocals by Mat Wilson and Ryan Koenig and the ever stylish slap bass of Joey Glynn weave through a tapestry of syncopated resonator guitar, screaming harmonica, mandolin , fiddle, bones and washboard. This trio of multi instrumentalists have a refreshing groove that swings at a perfectly danceable pace.
The Rum Drum Ramblers have netted local awards such as “Best Blues Band” and “Best Blues Album” over the years. One of the final protégés of Henry Townsend, guitarist Mat Wilson is a living link to the origins of St. Louis blues. Their road-warrior chops shine through in their playing, and their songwriting glistens with the depth of experience. Their music is both timeless and exciting, and the band plays with sincerity and respect to the original blues forebearers.
