Hailing from the heart of Pikeville, KY, Them Dirty Vandals have carved a distinctive sound blending classic rock swagger with the raw energy of Seattle grunge. Formed in the Winter of 2021, the band features Joe Fields on guitar, Jeremy Barrett on drums, Kyle McCown on bass, and Russ Hall on vocals. Together, they’ve created a dynamic musical force with a reputation for high-octane performances and timeless sound.
Influenced by legends of rock like Van Halen, The Winery Dogs, Stone Temple Pilots, Bad Company, and Thin Lizzy - just to name a few, Them Dirty Vandals bring a fresh twist to their classic inspirations. Their music embodies the power and polish of traditional rock, with a gritty edge that evokes the rawness of 90s grunge.
The band’s long-awaited debut album, released in early 2025, marks the beginning of a thrilling chapter in their career. With the second album already written and a third one in progress, TDV are undeniably prolific in their approach to music. Their sound has been dubbed "Alternative Classic Rock" — anthemic, yet unpredictable, with riffs that could stand shoulder to shoulder with the greatest rock bands, and a heavy groove that recalls the rebellious spirit of the grunge era.
As TDV continue to evolve and captivate audiences with their mix of soaring melodies and gritty guitar-driven anthems, it’s clear this band is here to stay.
