The other members of the W.S. Holland Band include veteran players Ron Haney (guitar/vocals), Russ (Newt) Hall (keyboards), and Jim Reece (bass guitar/vocals). Collectively, the three represent over 120 years of music performing, recording and producing experience.
The trio of Tennessee born and bred musicians are steeped heavily in the music heritage that characterizes the mid-south portion of the United States and that plays such a part in American music history and development. They come by their musical roots naturally and reflect pure influence from the area’s blues, rock, and country styles.
The W.S. Holland Band personifies original southern music in their performance and musicianship. A review of the bands performance by a festival promoter stated, “While (W.S.) Holland’s resume’ speaks for itself, we can confirm that he has assembled a group of seasoned musicians for this band that delivers a high-energy show guaranteed to bring the house down. It was a rare treat to work with a group that exhibits such high levels of musicianship and professionalism”.
