The Miners are an original alt country band based in Philadelphia, PA (yes, there are alt country bands in Philly). The Miners are: Keith Marlowe (lead vocals, electric and acoustic guitar), Gregg Hiestand (bass), Vaughn Shinkus (drums, vocals), and Brian Herder (pedal steel guitar) who leads a rotating cast of local pedal steel, lap steel and electric guitar players.
Originally formed in 2007, The Miners are known for their country-infused, guitar and pedal steel guitar laden, Alt Country originals influenced by the likes of Uncle Tupelo, Whiskeytown, Gram Parsons, and Merle Haggard. The Miners live shows are always an event and, beginning in 2015, they staged an annual sold out benefit at World Cafe Live (upstairs) in Philadelphia to raise money for breast cancer charities. The Miners play the Philadelphia area’s top venues including World Cafe Live (downstairs and upstairs), Milkboy Philly, 118 North, Bourbon & Branch and others. The Miners have also graced the stages of festivals including the Jenkintown Arts & Music Festival, the Philadelphia Country Music Festival and the Awbury Arboretum Harvest Festival.
