It all started when…

There was this party - one of those friendly Texas Hill Country get-togethers - where you have a couple of beers and someone pulls out a guitar… all of a sudden you’re ready to hit the road with your tunes, right? So, on this night, a bunch of us fun-loving friends were over at Steve’s and Gloria’s place having a belly-laughing good time; Steve grabbed his bass, Gloria and (founding member) Bruce were on guitars, and Gail got behind the drums. Somewhere in the tuneful jam between the free-flowing beer and “we sound awesome”, Gloria, Steve, Gail, and Bruce kinda smiled. We’d all jammed-out together plenty of times before, but this felt different: we might just have something here.

Our good friends and singing galpals, Jamie & Laurel came on board to add more vocals, trumpet and percussion, which brought a whole new dimension to the band. A few years and lots of gigs later, although we've said good-bye to our friends Bruce, and later to Billy (who joined us for a few years on guitars and vocals), the talented Glenn Jackson brought his skills on guitar, and a refreshed focus for the band. The Ramblewoods adventure continues! And really, there’s nothing better than making and playing music with your friends.

We are The Ramblewoods and we hope you enjoy our Hill Country-inspired tunes as much as we enjoy playing them for you!
