Roots, Rock, and R&B.  
Our music is a combination of southern and classic rock, R&B mixed with a tinge of New Orleans funk, traditional blues and reggae for flavor. Blue eyed soul meets black eyed peas in a joyous, musical mashup. Think The Allman Brothers and Little Feat, The Band, SRV, The Dead, Phish, The Meters, Hall and Oates and Steely Dan. 

Featuring these artists and many others along with some tasty originals, our performances deliver an entertaining mix of authentic musicianship and audience engagement. Combining guitar, piano and organ, a tight rhythm section and multiple-part vocal harmonies, these all mesh to deliver that “Northern Fried” Vibe.

It's not just about covering our heroes. After 25 years together, Northern Fried has stories of our own to tell. We're finishing our first collection, "Songs from the Bunker," a set of originals that capture where we've been and what we've seen.  Built on southern rock grit, R&B soul, and the honesty we've earned over two decades of shows, these aren't just songs—they're our voice. At our live performances, you'll get both: reimagined classics and originals that prove we've still got something to say.

Northern guys with a
taste for Southern sounds. 

Our live performances are
an invitation to
celebrate the music
of our heroes. 

We take the songs that
made us want to play,
and restore them to an
active state with our
stamp on it.
