Whisky Train are a Southern country rock n roll band located in Grover, NC. Think Lynyrd Skynyrd, Big and Rich, or even Florida/Georgia Line. These fellas are very talented and passionate about their music. They have been together for six years, but certain barriers have kept them from getting to the next level as a group.
Late last year, the band's leader and lead singer, Bill Moore, made plans to construct an all new band room from the ground up. Prior, the band simply practiced in Bill's utility building. Bill enlisted the help of his band mates and other friends and family and got to work to build a top notch facility for them to practice and perform in .
They started back in January with a lot of passion and very little supplies. As the year progressed, the band room started coming together more and more. This past Labor Day weekend (Sept 3), it was finally ready to rock in! They have a lot more room, full acoustics, a combination heating/air window unit, a mini stage for the drummer, a bar area, and even a lounge area for folks to watch. Nearly 50 people came to help Bill and Whisky Train christen the new band room! They rocked until the sun came up.
Other members of the band include many of Bill's family members: his brother Roger Moore, nephew Roger Moore Jr. and son JR Moore. Guys such as Jamey Ledbetter and Dwayne Tompkins from Relentless, and Ernie Spearman Jr. and Jeff Blackwell also show up to rock with WT. It was quite a time and could be a positive turn for the group.
