ARTIST BIO

The Doctors are in...

And their prescription of choice is a proverbial hair-of-the-dog, one-two punch. You know, treat the ailment with a dose of cure by the same name.

"It's simple. If you're in a funk, well ya gotta go and get the funk. It'll fix you straight up," says Dr. Walter Hemingway, medical chief of staff for The Root Doctors - South Carolina's preeminent feel-good clinic. "Music - funky music- is the remedy, man."

Combine heaping portions of bass, rhythm guitar, and brass with uniquely hip, feel-good grooves and you have the beginnings of a healing party that is safe to administer in massive doses to any member of the family, ages 8 to 80.

If you're looking for a talented, professional, and experienced band that strives to remedy your blues, The Root Doctors have the cure and are ready to administer your next dose!
