Austin-based 4 piece The Droptines, live wildly between the lines of Americana and rock and roll – what they dub alternative Americana. Signed to Big Loud Texas, the band sets their first full-length project with the label, Drought Flower, for April 3. Their artistry is defined by lead singer Conner Arthur’s vocal growl and reminiscent of The Droptines’ most pointed influences like rock heroes Tom Petty and James McMurty. Working with lauded producer and Big Loud Texas co-founder and president of A&R Jon Randall, the gritty band’s new music is entrenched in a southern vernacular – writing and performing the songs they want to hear most. Defined by a “beatnik-like itinerary of a lost soul’s activity” (Saving Country Music), The Droptines set out on their headlining Drought Flower Tour beginning in April. The Droptines are: Conner Arthur: lyricist, front man, lead vocals Dillon Sampson: lyricist, harmony vocals, bass Johnny Sheets: drums Tony Rincon: pedal steel, guitar, keys
The Droptines play alternative Americana and red dirt music, blending gritty rock and roll energy with traditional alt-country storytelling.
The band was originally formed in Concan, Texas, and is based in Austin.
