Rockslide

The group was formed with two goals in mind, to play great songs that all will know and love, and to play those songs with the energy and passion that will make watching and listening to a Rockslide performance an unforgettable experience. Playing hit songs from the 60's to today, with an emphasis on Rock and Rhythm & Blues, Rockslide has the ability to keep you on the edge of your seat or on the dance floor with its guitar driven sound, solid rhythm section, and great soulful vocals. Come and experience the sound of Rockslide, you will be glad you did!

Jeff Woods-Singer
Soulful singer/songwriter who has a passion for creating and performing great music. Jeff began his musical journey at a very early age. Jeff's powerful vocals are rooted out of blues, gospel, soul, and rock. With each performance given, his soul and heart is heard. The songs that Jeff has written are reflections of his real life experiences. There is a true honesty heard for what Christ has done for Jeff through his music. He has been called a storyteller for the soul. The lyrics he sings are the recipe for truth and his melodys are the driving force to obtain spiritual satisfaction.

Tim Baird-Drummer
Bringing the two and four is drummer Tim Baird. Playing since he was 10 years old, growing up to 50s and 60s and 70s music because it was the only thing in the house to listen too. Learned real quick having a solid rhythm section was must in any band. With so many influences able to bring the drive to many styles of music that Rockslide presents.

Wes Merrill-Lead Guitar
Wesley Merrill grew up in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Oregon before moving to middle Tennessee. Living so near to "Music City," it was here he picked up learning the guitar and has been playing ever since. He draws influence from skilled guitarists like J Mascis, Slash, B.B. King and Clapton, among other greats that all guitarists are inspired by. He has always loved classic rock and blues, and his playing style certainly reflects that.

Bruce Duncan-Guitar
Growing up in Austin, Texas in the 60's, Bruce began playing guitar at the age 10. Heavily influenced by guitar greats Hendrix, Clapton, Trower, SRV, Eric Johnson, David Grissom, and Doyle Bramhall II, Texas Road House Rock and Blues remains a core music focus.
