Blazing from
the embers of 2006, five long time fellow campfire stokers tempered themselves
into Old Wagon Whiskey.
A decade of
house party punk and ska witnessed the song writing evolution of Nathan
Tompkins (Vocals & Guitar) and Bobby Webb (Drums) into the crux of what Old
Wagon Whiskey is today. With Neil Mombo (Guitar) dishing out a hearty serving
of blues, Mark MacMullin (Congas) forking over equatorial rhythms, and Scottie
Penton (Bass) catering funk to the feast, Old Wagon Whiskey has rooted itself
in the Halifax music scene with their upbeat stage presence and pervasive
musical appeal.
“During the
long and bitter winters of Halifax, you cats pickup our cold and achy spirits
with tunes that remind us that heat, sun and palm trees still exist... and for
a few hours you warp us back to the tropics and rejuvenate our tired souls and
make our frozen bones thaw out and dance!!!”
