Album Notes
Veteran Southern Rockers, Dennis and Donnie Winters, were both born in southern Florida and moved to the hills of Tennessee at a very young age. When they pick up their guitars and begin a performance, you feel the commitment all the way to the soul. Their electricity excites everyone around, and their professional experience shines through with ease. They are the third generation of musicians in their family. Their grandfather "Pop" Winters began the "picking" tradition. His band "The Southern Strollers," were performing and recording in the late 40's. Their father Don Winters, Sr., had a successful career on his own with recordings on RCA and DECA Records. He was also a part of The Marty Robbins Show. During his 23 years with Marty, he was part of the band, the trio, and a featured solo artist. With music in their blood it just comes natural for the Winters Brothers. The Winters Brothers first album was appropriately called "The Winters Brothers Band." It was released on ATCO/Atlantic Records and earned the brothers acceptance around the world. It features the songs, "I Can't Help It," "Smoky Mountain Log Cabin Jones" and "Shotgun Rider." "Sang Her Love Songs" was later recorded live at the Volunteer Jam (which was an event hosted by the Charlie Daniels Band), and is featured on the Volunteer Jams III and IV album, an EPIC Records release. Their second album on ATCO/Atlantic Records was "Coast to Coast" and was held back due to legal complications. On EPIC Records, Charlie Daniels Band Volunteer Jam VI, the brothers recorded their song "Rich Kids." StarTrack Records based in Nashville, TN released their third album "Keep On Runnin." Their brand new CD "Southern Rockers" is released on SouthStarRecords. This new CD features 8 new southern rock songs and 4 originals from the first album that were recorded live in Nashville on November 27, 1999. All songs were written and produced by Dennis and Donnie Winters for SouthStarRecords and are getting great reviews and picking up air play across the world. This is a must for southern rock fans! The Winters Brothers Band is noted for their high energy, electrifying, live performances, loaded with soulful jams and nonstop excitement. Headlining countless shows, they are the most proud of their charity work, which has gained them respect around the world. Some of these include Farm Aid, Department of Human Services to raise funds for Abused Children, American Veterans, Muscular Dystrophy Association and many, many more. They were awarded the status of Tennessee Colonels by their home state for their charity work. As well as headlining they have toured with and played on the same bill with such acts as Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Allman Brothers Band, The Charlie Daniels Band, The Marshall Tucker Band, Molly Hatchet, 38 Special, Outlaws, Bob Seger, Jimmy Buffett, Grinderswitch, Bonnie Bramlett, Wet Willie, Blackfoot, Stillwater, Pure Prairie League, Firefall, Sea Level, Dixie Dreggs, Atlanta Rhythym Section, Elvin Bishop, Delbert McClinton, Neil Young, John Mellencamp and many, many more. From the original band, there is still the unforgettable style of Donnie's lead and slide guitar work and vocals, along with Dennis' innovative talent with lead vocals and rhythm guitars, not to mention his creative ability as a lyricist, which has made them unique to the business. Also on board is the original keyboard man David "Spig" Davis from the Smoky Mountains of east TN. His unique ability to play soulful and melodic keyboards puts the "S" in Southern Rock. From the piano to the B3 organ, "Spig" has definitely become a big part of the Southern Rock sound. Pumping out the bass is Ron "Rad" Dunn from middle Tennessee. He has been with the band for quite some time behind the scenes and for the last few years, has stepped up front to share his skill and talent. The thunder of his hard driving groove keeps you pumped up through the entire performance. Long time friend, Fred Satterfield, kicks out the jams with his precise precision and creative consistency on the drums. Fred holds down the beat for the "attack" of skilled and talented southern rock musicians. Fred is also very highly acclaimed for his studio work with other artists. The newest members of the Winters Brothers Band is the harmonic sound of "The Southern Belles." Casey, Carly, and Cody Winters, that's right, a new generation of the Winters singing back up. Look for them to be more a part of the next CD, and make sure you check out the excellent work they did on "Tasty" from the new Southern Rockers CD. Casey is also a featured performer on the brothers "live" shows. The Winters Brothers are currently hosting a half hour show airing several times a week on cable access Channel 19 Davidson County, Nashville, Tennessee, featuring the brothers "unplugged." Also spotlighting the talents of friends, nationally and locally. The Winters Brothers Band Annual Southern Summer Jam is held every June, the day before Father's day on their family farm located in Nolensville, TN. The 26th Annual Southern Summer Jam will be held on Saturday, June 18, 2005. Their newest release, "Southern Rockers" is in the style you are accustomed to hearing, a true southern "Jammin" experience for dedicated and new fans alike. Beginning with The Allman Brothers and continuing through the years with top selling bands like Lynyrd Skynyrd, Marshall Tucker and Charlie Daniels, the South has maintained a reputation for producing some of the hottest bands in the country. Following a family tradition, this includes The Winters Brothers Band.

With disco music raising its ugly head, second album, Coast 2 Coast was postponed by their record company, but finally came out in 1978 and featured fine tunes like "Home grown" and "A Gun Don't Mind", showcasing Toy Caldwell’s steel guitar.
