The Western Flyers Country Band from Fort Worth, TX

The Western Flyers are a virtuosic award winning trio channeling the golden age of 1940s Western swing with dazzling musicianship. Blending Western swing & jazz classics, classic country hits, honky tonk, cowboy charm with swing-era sophistication, they serve up an irresistibly hot, unmistakably Texas-style sound with an electrifying energy all their own. Featuring an all-star lineup led by guitar slinger Joey McKenzie on archtop guitar & vocal, fiddle champion Ridge Roberts on fiddle & vocal, upright bassist Matthew Mefford, and as often as possible Grammy award winning telecaster master Redd Volkaert, the award winning Flyers are guaranteed to have even the shyest of wallflowers tappin' their toes. Performance highlights include: The Worlds Fair in Dubai, National Folk Festival, Grand Ole Opry, Lowell Folk Festival, Library of Congress, Prairie Home Companion, Dallas Symphony Orchestra, tours in France, South America, Russia and Australia, US Embassy tours and sister city events, folk & bluegrass festivals, fairs and private events across the United States.
