13740 Arnold Drive Glen Ellen, CA 95442 - (707) 938-8510 
A broad range of Indie Rock and Americana and the American Roots styles that inspired it: country blues, Zydeco, roots rock, Tex Mex, rockabilly, Singer-Songwriter, Motown, Brazilian and Louisiana music. This combo, sprung out of the pandemic has developed a unique, catchy, funky, moody sound, drawing from the varied past. Comparison's have been made to the music of Big Al Anderson (NRBQ), The Band, JJ Cale, Asleep At The Wheel, Dan Hicks, Buddy &amp; Julie Miller, Jesse Ed Davis &amp; Levon Helm.
Jack London Saloon: Experience quintessential Glen Ellen like the locals do. Steeped in turn of the century history and charm, The Jack London Saloon offers a spacious and beautiful Creekside Patio... savor the serene setting beside the Sonoma Creek. Experience a vintage landmark among Sonoma Wine Country restaurants. The Saloon features wine country comfort food and the best burger in Sonoma. The beverage list highlights an incredible variety of Wine Country vintages, craft beers, and cocktails.
"...The guitars slam like saloon doors, the violin traces lines that oscillate between melancholy and jubilation, the rhythm section moves forward with a tranquil groove that never rushes but never falters... Back pOrchEstra delivers a luminous, earthy, profoundly human record. An album that makes you want to sit on a porch, watch the sunset, and let the stories do their work...." - Fred Delforge, Zicazine (translated from French) <a href="https://www.zicazic.com/zicazine/index.php?option=content&amp;task=view&amp;id=18836" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">zicazic.com/zicazine/index.php?option=content&amp;task=view&amp;id=18836</a>
"...What sets 'Stories In The Heart' apart is its sense of balance. Resonator guitar, violin, bass, drums, percussion, dobro, and Telecaster create a flexible, roots-forward palette that allows Back Porchestra to move between styles fluidly. The songs echo traditions without reenacting them, keeping one foot in the past and the other firmly planted in the present." - Vince's Hot Picks (Best of 2026) New Releases Now

"It's one fine album" - Ben Fong-Torres (Rolling Stone, Almost Famous)
"...evokes artists from multiple decades over the last century and embraces everything from indie-rock and Americana to Celtic, Motown, and Western swing. If you need a reference point, look to bands like Dan Hicks and His Hot Licks and Asleep at the Wheel, whose records also draw on disparate sources." - Jeff Burger, Americana Highway
