Ross William Perry is a driven and focused musician whose style is rooted in
tradition and spread further by reaching beyond what would be expected from
the categorized genre he’s placed in. His influences include past artists of
rock power trios of the sixties and he demonstrates a strong southern blues
flavor tinged with a hint of jazz- swing ability. His sound is often
described as a heavy, earthy, organic tone that is fully demonstrated in his
live shows. His sound and music appeal to both young crowds hearing this
style for the first time, as well as older generations who haven’t heard his
authentic approach in ages. The ability to reel in fans from different
musical tastes and backgrounds such as country, hip hop, etc gives The Ross
William Perry band a wider fan base that keeps the crowd and dance floor
full.
Ross puts on a quality, no non-sense show full of entertainment yet free
from fancy light shows, outfits or the latest trends. He delivers an honest
musical style that is free from those distractions and true to the point.
