Whit a penchant for old-timey Americana, New York-based The Doc Marshalls has built a reputation for itself as being one of the premier modern country bands of its generation. Sticking out as a proverbial sore thumb, in a geographical location that's known for spawning some of the nation's more pretentious indie rock bands, has helped The Doc Marshalls attract a fan base that's not afraid to indulge in an ardent love of straightforward folk-inspired and honky-tonk flavored music. Formed in 2001, the outfit has been a reliable source for premium country listening material and has managed to turn heads on the national circuit, whenever the band hits the road for one of its ardent touring schedules.
