Red Dirt Country Music has become the fastest growing underground music genre, and is quickly becoming more and more mainstream. Throughout many years, this collaboration of country, rock, blues, folk, & bluegrass music has grown with artists like Woody Guthrie, Randy Crouch, Bob Childers, Cross Canadian Ragweed and Jason Bolen & The Stragglers. Vince Gill and Garth Brooks came from this music, and still play a lot of it today. Venues all over the world, that feature this music, regularly, pack the house From a wide range of musicians, five have come together to collaborate on a Red Dirt Country project and literally lay it "On The Line".
As Red Dirt Country is the people’s music, so is this group of musicians. Live, the band is in touch with their audiences. At their shows, the music they play, original & covers, people feel in touch with the band, and with what they do.
The group, "On The Line", is made up of five members. Ryan Miller – Vocals & Guitar – Ryan’s superb front vocals, and prolific song writing, leads the band down the Red Dirt path, continuing yet another generation’s interpretation of this musical style. Mark Clemmons – Drums & Vocals – Mark’s considerable experience as a road musician keeps the band’s sound a driving force, always moving forward. Russell Voise – Bass – Hailing from OSU in Stillwater, the Heart of Red Dirt Country, Russ is continuing on the traditions of three generations of his families’ ability to play and help grow this home grown, down home Oklahoma music. Scott Summers – Fiddle, Mandolin, & Vocals – Scott’s experience with bands like the “The Bluegrass Pilots”, allows his solid abilities, on his instruments, to give the flavor that Red Dirt Country requires. Bob Dorman – Guitar, Dobro, Lap Steel, Mandolin & Vocals – Bob’s many years of being a professional musician, and his experience doing the sound for the legendary Stage 5 at the Walnut Valley Festival, along with his involvement with The Oklahoma Bluegrass Festival, and many other festivals, has led him to meet and play with many of the great musicians that make up the Red Dirt Music world. This experience, along with his immense playing abilities, helps to round out “On The Line. The years of playing this musical style that the members have, insure that Ryan Miller, Mark Clemmons, Russ Voise, Scott Summers, and Bob Dorman as, "On The Line", do one thing...write, play, and perform the music that masses of people relate to and enjoy.
Regardless of the setting, private function, outdoor festival, indoor concerts, casinos, or clubs, “On The Line” provides quality live entertainment. Everyone that hears them, remembers this band, and keeps coming back to hear “On The Line” again..
