Rock, blues, roots, funk, stomp, bluegrass, swing, dance. You’ll have to make up your own mind. Barrel House take in influences from a wide range of music genres and styles, blending fast bluegrass finger picking guitar and funk slap bass over racy electro/jazz drum beats! When the boys get fired up their music takes off like some kind of possessed runaway steam train! Lead singer and guitarist Dwaine Cameron plays electric/acoustic lap slide, guitar and Dobro, with many different strumming, picking, slide and percussion techniques sure to keep a crowed entertained. Backed by a flawless rhythm section of dynamic drum beats from Jarin Pennial then laying down the grooves, the vibrant tones of Jordan Howell on upright and electric bass certain to keep the body moving. Barrel House have been together just over a year and have already completed successful NSW/QLD coast tours, shows in Melbourne and have plenty more tours planned for the future all over the country. They have an EP which has received radio air play including stations such as JJJ and they are looking to put out an album in the near the end of the year.
