“Rowdy, yet heartfelt honkabilly music straight from Upstate New York.”
“All-original, unfiltered Country Western storytelling with a Rockabilly twist!”
Drew Kiddoo and The Blackouts
Ithaca, NY-based Drew Kiddoo (pronounced kih-doo) and The Blackouts have been crafting their distinctive brand of country music for nearly a decade. Drawing inspiration from the golden era of American music, they fuse 60s honky-tonk and classic country with a gritty rockabilly edge—creating a sound that’s as twangy as it is dark.
Drew’s songwriting delivers a timeless, easy-to-sing-along nostalgia, electrified by an aggressive energy that fuels barn-burnin’, good-time dance crowds. Their raw performances tell stories of the open road, heartbreak, and endless nights, captivating audiences throughout the Northeast.
Since their debut, Drew Kiddoo and The Blackouts have released three albums, including their latest, “GiddyUp and Go”. Their dynamic, boot-stompin’ shows have earned them a devoted following and appearances at notable venues and festivals such as Alaska’s Trapper Creek Bluegrass Festival, Memphis’ World Famous Hernando’s Hideaway, and the Finger Lakes Grassroots Festival of Music and Arts.
