It’s Saturday night.

It’s been a week or two since you’ve lost your mind, but tonight’s the night. You’ve got plans to hang out with your friends, drink too much, get too loud, make a scene, fall into a cab when it’s all over, and sleep it off tomorrow.

It’s nights like this, when you’ve been in a good mood all day in anticipation. Nights like this, when you finally get to let loose and have fun. Nights like this, when shots seem like a good idea even though you know you’ll regret it.

It’s nights like this that are tailor-made for a Pat Watters Band show.

The Pat Watters Band (PWB) is a 5-piece independent country band from the bluff country of Western Wisconsin. With compelling original songs, their own take on classic and current country hits, and a paint-peeling, high energy live show, the PWB has one of the fastest growing fan bases in the upper Midwest. In 2010, just two years after forming, they were named People’s Choice Band of the Year at the Wisconsin Area Music Industry (WAMI) Awards.

A PWB show isn’t your run-of-the-mill cover band experience. The band’s independent album “The Man in the Middle” has yielded solid regional radio success, with singles including “All Night One Day”, “When He’s on the Whiskey”, and the band’s trademark song “When I Grow Up.” But it isn’t just the band’s original songs that set them apart. When choosing covers, the PWB doesn’t just focus on today’s top 40 charts. In fact, they don’t look at the charts at all. Instead, they focus on the stuff they love- real, country music. From hell raisin’ tunes by country’s original outlaws, to gems from country’s up-and-coming acts, the PWB specializes in the kind of music that gets you thinking, gets you drinking, and reminds you why you love country.

So pull up a stool, or walk right up to the bandstand. Hell, the boys would love to meet you. The guitars are tuned up, the sound check is over, and the band’s about ready to fire this thing up. Sing along if you want, dance like you’re good at it, or just sit there and drink. But whatever you do, have fun. Because it’s Saturday night, and the PWB came to party.
