When front man Daniel Wheeler called upon former band mates and talent from Nebraska’s largest metro areas to start a new project, little was known about what would come from the resulting mix of rockers and country boys. Sixteen years, and a few thousand shows later SwitchBak and it’s four members continue to pack Midwest clubs, streets, festivals, and fairs with their own brand of country-rock music.

Drawing on the driving guitars of southern rock, the storytelling of country Outlaws, the anthems of today’s country stars and the raw edge of Texas red-dirt, SwitchBak mixes all of the best ingredients like a good cocktail and then sets them ablaze to create a distinctly rugged, raw, natural sound of their own that has found its way into the hearts of thousands.
