Turn on your favorite “Classic Rock” station and what do you hear… a little AC/DC… some Led Zeppelin, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and ZZ Top?  Hit the radio dial again and get an “80’s Rock” station.  The sounds of Joan Jett, Rick Springfield, Cheap Trick, Poison, and Guns n' Roses are sure to abound.  Another click on the dial and you get a “Modern Rock” station.  You know you’ll hear Creed, Kid Rock, 3 Doors Down, and Puddle of Mudd.  With three simple clicks you have essentially heard 3 decades of rock n’ roll.  You now have a small idea of what Whiskey Tango is all about!  They ARE your favorite Classic to Modern Rock radio stations rolled into an energetic LIVE band!

Whiskey Tango has developed into one of Mid-Missouri's most sought after bands.  They show a diversity in song selections that can't be found anywhere else.  Delivering the driving beat as drummer/percussionist and lead vocalist is Darren Huddleston.  Darrell Jaeger dispenses searing lead & rhythm guitars and backing vocals, and recenty joining Whiskey Tango as bassist and lead vocalist, Dean Adkins provides a nice groove to one of the best rhythm sections around.  While Whiskey Tango is comprised of three individuals with completely distinctive personalities, it is their constant dedication to the music they love that keeps them directed towards a common goal… to make music they can be proud of, and that the fans enjoy.

In a time when local bands can spend literally years on the music scene with only a small following, Whiskey Tango has managed to win the hearts of several hundred!  In March 2002, the fans poured into the Battle of the Bands to show their support, and propelled Whiskey Tango to an overwhelming 1^st Place victory.  The band continues to cultivate a blossoming fan base.  From the casual listeners to the diehard loyal fans, Whiskey Tango knows that their audience is the most important aspect of the band.

Because of the creative energy that exists in Whiskey Tango, it was only a matter of time before a CD of original songs was recorded.  Their debut CD, "Clear The Room!", has sold over 600 copies locally, and two of its tracks have been in the 1st and 2nd chart position on internet radio site at comomusic.com.  All of this success has driven them to begin work on their sophomore effort.  Whiskey Tango is dedicated to producing albums of great rock n’ roll, start to finish.  Judging by fan reaction to their originals at live shows, they accomplish just that.

Now out in support of the new album, Whiskey Tango is appeasing their fans with an unrelenting schedule of performance dates each month, and looks forward to each one as though it were the first gig they ever played.  Although they have recently been seen in larger venues in Mid-Missouri, Whiskey Tango frequently returns to many of the smaller clubs in which they got their start.  “We just like to play, plain and simple! We take ALL gigs seriously, and have NEVER left anyone feeling like they haven’t gotten their money’s worth!”
