WHITESANDS PANHANDLE BANDFrom the Florida Panhandle comes one of the hottest bands in genres of bluegrass, country and rockabilly, the Whitesands Panhandle Band.
Whitesands Band was founded by Brad Hanssen and Mike Feldman in 1979 and has had many great musicians and singers over the years, but what stands out is its hard driving instrumentals and great singing — the cornerstones of the band.
Tim Baldwin takes the helm as lead singer and rhythm guitarist. Tim’s musical experience is anchored in strong southern gospel singing, with an impeccable ear for melody and harmony. Tim also pens original songs, some of which Whitesands Band will premiere on its upcoming album. Brad Hanssen adds vocals and fiddle, but notably, Brad is one of the hottest banjo players around. The rest of the band includes Mike Feldman on harmonica, Ricky Barlow on drums, Chris Sheppard on lead guitar, and Don Lopez on bass.
While true to its roots, Whitesands Band mixes the traditional with the new and gives fans across America an exciting blend of bluegrass, country and rockabilly — their way.
