THE WELL DRINKERS

The Well Drinkers are a progressive, original bluegrass & Americana band based out of Western North Carolina and often playing festivals & venues across the Southeast. 

Since the band’s creation in 2019, the group has striven to combine the traditional roots of Appalachian music with progressive instrumentation, songwriting and subject matter.

And the group doesn’t shy away from bringing experimental jams, jazz, classical, Cajun, and reggae into their live performances.

The Well Drinkers are: Jake Bachman (lead vocals, mandolin), Adam Bachman (dobro, pedal steel, vocals), Josh Riley (upright bass, vocals), Jeremy Rilko (banjo, vocals) & Andrew Wakefield (guitar, vocals).
