An incredibly diverse group of 7 musicians that create a range of old classic country, classic & southern rock, as well as some Red Dirt, Blues & contemporary & original music.
We are "Musical Heritage"! We share our love and promote musical heritage! From patriotic sets, to Elvis, Johnny Cash & Hank & Willie! Dolly and Garth and even Holiday Favorites!
Jimi Pritchett (Shawnee Kansas) graces us on drums as well as lends his vocals to the group. Jimi was drafted into the Kansas Music Hall of Fame in March 2010 at Liberty Hall in Lawrence, as a singer & drummer of the band, Green River Ordinance.
Bill Thompson (Topeka, Kansas) on lead guitar sets the tone with his lifetime experience on the stage. Bill is a legend in his own time!
In the 1960's as a youngster, he and his brother wrote a song that went to # 1 in Europe as part of a rock & roll band called "Rovin Ramblers". The song was titled "That Girl Needed Kissin". Bill is extremely talented and plays every genre with the passion & skill that can only come from a lifetime of love for live music.
Howard Dickinson (Shawnee, Kansas) & Joe Hopkins (Olathe, Kansas) bring their life long love of musicianship and high quality lead vocals to create an unforgettable sound enhanced by their guitar performances & harmonies. Joe Hopkins' originals bring a haunting & beautiful freshness to the stage.
Matt Dollar (Lawrence, KS) started gigging in 1979 and has been playing continuously since, but started playing the pedal steele initially in 1980. He has gigged across the the US, and throughout the Northeast and Midwest. His instinctive style lends a soulful touch to the vocals perfectly for a beautiful, rich experience
Larry Carden (Linwood, Kansas) lends his bass guitar.
Debbie Carden (Linwood) joins in with back up vocals.
Joe Hopkins & Debbie Carden have been colaborating on new originals in 2021 and will be sharing those soon. Joe's originals are always a hit with his fan club!
The Wakarusa River Band is taking time to work up some more great music and can't wait to share it with you! We are also working on shows; announcement to follow soon!
