press release: The WhiskeyBelles are an all-female traditional country and Americana trio based out of Milwaukee. The Belles are widely known for captivating shows featuring their own take on classic and obscure vintage-country, Americana, folk-revival and roots-country tunes, with their witty originals sprinkled in. They’ve been compared with the Pistol Annies, Dixie Chicks and The Trio (Dolly Parton, Emmy Lou Harris & Linda Ronstadt).The WhiskeyBelles have personalities as big as the Texan skyline – they have a great time on stage, and love to share the fun with their audience.
The ‘Belles started their musical shenanigans in May 2011 and by July of the following year they released their independent debut album, Whiskey Woman, which was named one of the 10 best local albums of 2012 by Milwaukee Magazine.
They released their second album on November 30th, 2013. This release is a raucous Christmas album aptly titled, Nothin’ Says Christmas Like Whiskey. Then in June 2015 they released their third CD, a live album titled Tales from the Bootleggers’ Ball. A fun-filled, larger than life album that gives the listener a taste of what it’s like to hear the WhiskeyBelles in their element, performing live.
“One band that makes their performance look like more fun than legally allowed is the Whiskeybelles. Blessed with decent chops, excellent harmonies and outstanding camaraderie and charisma the Whiskeybelles delight audiences every night out.” – Paddy Fineran, Scene262.com
