ABOUT BLACKWATER RAILROAD COMPANY
Blackwater Railroad Company is celebrating over 10 years of making music. BWRR's raucous live shows were born out of wild, blurry, Alaskan winter nights. Through the years, Blackwater has had the privilege of gaining the love of Alaska and sharing their music all over the 49th State. Playing on the top of mountains, next to towering glaciers, and afloat out in the Gulf of Alaska. Performing from Nome to Haines, Fairbanks to Seward, on the Highway and off, touring most of the lower 48 and the band's second home of Hawaii. BWRR will rolling out new songs and some new faces as the sound continues to grow. They have added Braden Astoria-Rollins on sax and Will Balcao on drums! With Canada on the horizon and new Alaskan towns on the schedule, BWRR's 11th Summer Tour is going to be the most adventurous one yet. Come to the show and let's dance!
