We've come from different parts of the country, converging on the Wilmington NC area and were lucky enough to find each other to create The FM Underground. Individually, we have touring experience and some have opened for national acts like Doobie Brothers, Crosby/Nash, ELO, Kansas, Chicago etc. Our desire to hone our sound began over two years ago when we started practicing in a recording studio through headphones, dedicating ourselves to recording each practice and learning to play as one unit-we think (and have been told) this is evident in our live production. While we do write and record our own music, our goal is to provide you with an outstanding live performance you and your guests will not want to end. Thank you for considering The FM Underground, be sure to listen to our audio clips!

Additional booking notes

We will provide sound and lights (no lights for daytime outdoor events) and would need an appropriate power supply. We will provide extension cords, full PA system, full backline.
