Project Overview
The Roe Family Singers are a good-time, old-time hillbilly band from the Mississippi-headwaters community of Kirkwood Hollow, MN. Led by wife & husband Kim Roe (Best Female Vocalist, City Pages/Village Voice) and Quillan Roe (Accident Clearinghouse), the band blends characteristic old-time sound with rock & roll urgency and influence. With a mix of original music and contemporary takes on old-time, traditional, and gospel tunes, every performance raises a ruckus.
