The Whisky Dollars hail from Charlotte, N.C.

We play what is best described as roots music - a blend of improvisational blues, funk, soul, reggae and rock and roll music.

The band is named after the paper currency we often find wadded in our front pockets the morning after seeing and/or playing live music shows. More often than not, these dollars emerge wrinkled, misshapen and damp with sweat and rock and roll grease. 

Our set lists are influenced by Willie Dixon, Bob Marley , Bruce Springsteen, Little Feat, The Band, Bob Dylan, Van Morrison, B.B. King, The Meters, Steel Pulse, Johnny Cash,  the Grateful Dead, Wilco, U2, Tom Petty, Elvis Costello and the Allman Brothers, to name a few. We may even sprinkle in an original or two.
