Mission Accomplished

Hard Working Americans is a mission as much as a band. Loose-limbed, freak flag waving specters caper inside this freshly minted but quicksilver evolving unit where the boogie politics of Haight-Ashbury canoodle with southern muscle, blue-collar understanding, and a bold rallying cry for true American individualism, freedom and community.

"The description of church I got as a kid – a joyous celebration of life and gratitude - was nothing like the reality of it, and I feel like this band is a spiritual outlet that lives up to the description," says lead singer, professional scallywag and People's Preacher Todd Snider. "I feel like I'm the small part of a bigger thing. I think the deepest thing music does is make people dance and Hard Working Americans is here to make folks move."

Formed in late 2013, HWA comprises Snider, bassist Dave Schools (Widespread Panic), guitarist Neal Casal (Chris Robinson Brotherhood), keyboardist Chad Staehly (Great American Taxi), drummer Duane Trucks and guitarist Jesse Aycock. 

The clear flow and friendship in Hard Working Americans is easy to see, and the gravity of what they're doing develops a stronger, more irresistible pull the longer they serve this mission.

"When music becomes almost religious it doesn't need to be a show. It can be a real experience, where the gathering before and hang afterwards all matter to the whole thing, " says Snider. "I think it's the highest calling I can put my ability to rhyme orange with door hinge to. I feel like I've been preparing my whole life to rhyme words for Dave Schools."
