About Us:
The Rafe Hollister Band was born in
2005 in the mountains of Maggie
Valley, N.C. After a year of
rehearsing and recording, the final
line-up came together. The members
are: Sam Brinkley- Lead
Vocals/Guitar/Harmonica, Jeff
Mendenhall- Fiddle, Brooks Butler-
Lead Guitar/Backing Vocals, Joseph
Massie- Bass, Vince Seabrook- Drums
and Mark Moser- Mandolin. Most of the
band members spent their early years
in rock bands, which now gives the
boys their own unique style that they
call Mountain Rock, describing their
use of traditional bluegrass
instruments to create Rafe's brand of
roots music. Known for their
high-octane live shows, the band has
played more bars, festivals, biker
rallies and house parties than you can
shake a stick at, giving them a
seasoned and authentic sound.The new
album entitled 'Stimulus Package' is
an eclectic mix of original songs
ranging from bluegrass, rock, folk,
blues, punk and country. In the lyrics
you'll hear tales of heartbreak,
moonshine, scarecrows, lard, Nascar,
gospels, albiners, poking things with
a stick, cows, parole, missing teeth,
illiteracy, staring at the sun,
possums, hoedowns, tractors, pig
fights, gambling, hillbillies, chicken
spit, horsepower, losers, trucks, city
folk, family trees that don't branch,
trailer parks, coon dogs, minimum
wage, Bigfoot, camouflage, food
stamps, Uncle Daddy, Skoal rings, dirt
naps, bootleggers, Ford vs. Chevy,
overalls, mullets, fancy book
learnin', hair loss, The Man,
gibberish, manual labor, squirrels,
loitering, pocket knives, feuds and
various other subjects that make up
life in rural Appalachia. It's just
mountain grown, honky tonkin' rock at
it's purest. Rafe Hollister has a
reputation for tight performances and
mighty fine original music and they
aim to keep it that way.
Our new record 'Stimulus Package' is now available
directly from our website @ www.rafehollister.com
along with other merch. The album is also
available at iTunes, Amazon, Napster and
Rhapsody.com

TELL EVERY ONE ABOUT
IMRadio -- Got to
thinking. What if each of
us independent musicians
told our family, friends,
fans and acquaintances
about IMRadio.com, how
besides the main
stations, it has stations
for each of the states
individually, 52
countries, and just about
every musical genre --
reaching any internet
connection around the
world. We could tell them
in person, on the
internet or at small or
large venues. Anyone we
tell would appreciate the
convenience of such good
music from independent
musicians on their
computer. It would be
such a good way to help
all of us reach even more
listeners. With IMRadio,
we aren't just waiting at
the mercy of some major
label to decide whether
or not they will let us
be heard around the
world. There are enough
of us that the outreach
could be exponential.
And, wouldn't it be a
great way to say 'thank
you' to Paddy and all of
the other fine folks who
have put IMRadio.com on
the world's musical map.
They have put in money,
time, energy and
dedication, and all they
have asked of us in
return is to upload our
music and profile. I am
sure that they have great
plans to publicize
IMRadio and bring it to
even more listeners. In
the meantime, through,
wouldn't it be great if
we could all help a
little by just taking a
little time each day to
tell family, friends,
fans and acquaintances
about IMRadio. It
wouldn't cost a dime,
just a little time.
Yours, in Musical
Solidarity, Paul.
