(EBM) While appearing live on the "Fox & Friends" All-American Summer Concert Series today, Aug. 9, genre-bending band Whiskey Myers added to their Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) hardware with a surprise presentation of five new Gold, Platinum and multi-Platinum certifications (denoted with asterisks below), bringing their total to nine RIAA-certified hits, a rare feat for an independent band:
"Stone" (2x Platinum)*
"Bury My Bones" (Platinum)*
"Ballad of a Southern Man" (Platinum)
"Broken Window Serenade" (Platinum)
Firewater (Gold)
"Reckoning" (Gold)*
"Bar, Guitar and a Honky Tonk Crowd" (Gold)*
"Lonely East Texas Nights" (Gold)*
"Virginia" (Gold)
The chart-topping band performed two of those Platinum-certified songs, "Bury My Bones" and "Broken Window Serenade," as well as fan-favorite "Die Rockin'" plus "John Wayne" and "Feets" off their latest album, Tornillo, lauded by Forbes as "difficult to categorize or pigeonhole because it's uniquely their own... constantly pushing the creative envelope," with Saving Country Music declaring the album to be "unapologetic and attitudinal," noting, "Tonrillo brings an energy, drive, pluck, and abandon most of modern music in this repressed era has vacated due to fear of reprisal. Rock music needs saving too, and Whiskey Myers is here to pick up the slack."
Whiskey Myers' appearance comes as the band brings their high-octane live show celebrated by Holler as a "six-piece concoction of southern rock, blue-collar country and rock 'n' roll... solidifying Whiskey Myers' place among the leading jam bands of the 21st century" to Atlantic City, N.J. tonight, Aug. 9; Virginia Beach, Va. (with Hank Williams, Jr.) tomorrow, Aug. 10; and Selbyville, Del. on Sunday, Aug. 11 as their headlining run continues throughout the U.S. until November.
