About / Biography

Knoxville Highway are emerging as one of the leading country acts in the UK. The band cover the great Nashville sounds of Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Glen Campbell and the Eagles right up to more modern Country acts along with their own outstanding self penned songs.

the band is fronted by ‘country’ Bob Gessey ( see solo listing ) -

This versatile group now a five piece, play theatres, festivals and arts centre's but can easily adapt to bring a 'Country' party feel to Weddings, anniversaries and Birthdays. The music is all live, with an impressive line up of instruments including acoustic and electric guitars, pedal steel guitar, drums, Piano banjo and Harmonica. Experienced and accomplished musicians, they have developed produced and performed their own theatre show 'Knoxville Highway: A Journey Through the Heart and Soul of Country Music.'

With elements of Bluegrass and Tex Mex, their performances appeal to the old and young alike and with so many instruments and changes of style, they defy anyone not to have a great evening!

'Country band Knoxville Highway are impressive to say the very least. From the deliverance-style banjo and guitar duel to the quality and warmth of double bass and pedal steel guitar, these country boys gave it to us with both barrels. Knoxville Highway are a joy to listen to.'
Mark Ritchie, THE STAGE
