After years of playing metal and punk, Chris McFadden (mandolin/vocals) and Josh Dillon (guitar/vocals) decided to explore something different and began playing the more acoustic Bluegrass-influenced music that would become the signature of Stillwater Riverband. The band has grown to two members to four and spent the first part of 2012 performing many live gigs in the Dayton area. The band is now recording their first album and stopped by the WYSO studio for some live songs.

Stillwater Riverband will release its debut album in early 2013.
