“The NewArkansans, or TNA are the band your Mother warned you about. A touring rock and roll force, these two are hellbent on delivering hair, tunes, and good times to the masses. Indie-folk and southern-rock soul meet powerhouse British vocalities in an exuberant collision of storytelling, attitude, and debauchery.
Formed in Newark, New Jersey in 2016, TNA have since been consistently touring around the United States, the UK and Europe, reaching new audiences and fans each year.
Comprised of Rosie Corcoran’s lead vocals and AR’s prodigal son Kelso Gin Whitney on guitar, harmonica and harmonies, The Newarkansans deliver all the folk-wailing subtext of an alcohol induced dream. Rosie’s Brit-rock roots compliment Kelso’s southern songwriting mystique, resulting in powerful harmonies and bar banging rhythmic intensity.
TNA executes a contemporary vision of rock, soul, blues and folk, merging influence from both sides of an Atlantic ocean full of whiskey. They beseech you to enjoy.”
