“The Maldives…play the kind of country music that would exist today if Garth Brooks never happened. Years ago it would’ve been called alt-country or country rock or some other amalgamation, but today we can call it country and love it for that. Bandleader Jason Dodson has a voice and delivery you believe in; he sings songs of dead relatives and growing up and moving away.

(They are) nine pieces strong, including full-time fiddle and lap steel, percussion, banjo/accordion, acoustic and electric guitar, keys, bass, and drums, with plenty of backup vocal harmonizing.”

Jonathan Zwickel (Seattle Times)

Band Lineup:

Jason Dodson - Guitar, Lead Vocal
Jesse Bonn - Guitar, Piano
Tim Gadbois - Guitar, Piano
Ryan McMackin - Drums, Percussion
Chris Warner - Bass Guitar
Chris Zasche - Pedal Steel Guitar

    I agree with XbudgieX, "Say Nothing" from Listen to the Thunder really reminds me of "Helpless" These guys are awesome, glad to be from the PNW like they are.

    These guys really remind me of Neil Young. Really confused on why both Kid Dakota and Opium of the Masses are similar artists, though.
