Sheffield, the steel city in the north of England with a rich vein of musical and artistic talent; from Joe Cocker, Def Leppard, Pulp, Arctic Monkeys, to Michael Palin, Dominic West, Sean Bean and Brian Glover, also has spawned bearded southern rock extraordinaries The Fargo Railroad Co.
Harking back to the roots of country rock and blues, with touches of Lynryd Skynrd, Allman Brothers, Little Feat and the ’70s sound of Cash, Young and Dylan, they appeal to the contemporary Blackberry Smoke and Jason Isbell fan bases.
They are one of the hardest working bands around, touring and recording their songs of life’s trials and triumphs, in a traditional line up of acoustic and electric guitars, drums and bass.
With two studio and a live album already in their back catalogue, shows in every part of the UK, two tours abroad, a UK support tour for Hayseed Dixie, and a constant sale of trucker caps and t-shirts, they released their latest album, Time and Grace, in the spring of 2024.
