Whiskey Pines
BY Patrick Gibney
What makes for great music? Melody? Harmony? Passion? Whiskey Pines has all of that and more.
Whiskey Pines was formed in Southern Pines, North Carolina in 2012. They are an acoustic collective of top-tier musicians, the brainchild of Tim Stelmat. After a successful stint as part of a country trio, Tim formed Whiskey Pines with his former partner, Ashley. In 2015 Ashley left Whiskey Pines to pursue her own music career. Shortly after her departure, Tim brought in Bobby Hancock on vocals, harmonica, bass, and acoustic guitar; a move that led to the current Whiskey Pines sound..
Whiskey Pines is currently playing upward of 150 or more shows per year. They perform at clubs, private parties, restaurants, bars, theme parks, festivals, and special events. They attribute their success thus far to their commitment to their craft and their professionalism. When it comes to Whiskey Pines, they offer a little something for everyone to enjoy. They cover music from the 60's up to today, incorporating their own spin on some of the greatest songs ever written. Paddy’s is pleased to welcome back Whiskey Pines on Saturday, July 13th.
