This band of two brothers hailing from Lorain, Ohio have been playing together for about 18 years. For 10 of those 18 years they have been continuing to develop their good time sound and electric energy in Tennessee, playing music festivals, community events, coffeehouses, restaurants, television programs and church services. The brothers John and Nathanael Gilkes are constantly tapping into their musical roots of 60's and 70's rock, classic blues, Christian rock, Indie pop, and Motown soul to create their own unique musical love letter which is the sound of Root Road. The band's mission is to promote the power of God's love and the importance of community through the music they create.
