In 2001, the stadium of their favorite football team - RBC Roosendaal, three guests with a fully different musical experience decided to start a band. Southern Way called it, because we all were born in the southern part of Holland called Noord-Brabant. Nothing, however, has not, until January 2002, when the guys found their sound, they began to write songs and take it all began more seriously.
originally wanted to start playing street punk, but their style quickly evolved into a heavy rock 'n' roll mixed with psychobilly, street punk, and even some metal influences.
Already in February the same year they decided to record their first demo cassette called "Football is Fun" for self promotion. It contained two pieces of "Football is fun" and "Southern Way" and was recorded by their good friend from the beer named Timo. I've never been in sales, was created solely for promotional purposes.
their first gig on 19th May 2002 Baroeg in Rotterdam. The guys met there with a very positive reception, which also remained on all subsequent appearances. Among other things, in February 2003 became interested in them, Rebellion Records Holland. The band recorded six songs for an EP in the studio Edisound of Tilburg. The release of this EP, and abandoned it soon after the next seven cuts in April 2003 was released first album, "Southern Way" by Rebellion Records label. Rock 'n' roll bands contain hard pieces of text-based football, girls and horror films.
Over the years the band played throughout the Netherlands. Southern Way shared the stage with Frenzy, The Exploited, GBH, Madball, Speedrock Peter Pan, The Real McKenzies, Milwaukee Wildmen, Dicemen, cenobites and a few others.
In 2005, band found a new drummer - replaced by Marc Burt'a Youngsters'a busy traveling. In 2006, a lot of guys were playing with him, inter alia, GAME AWARDS TMF (Dutch MTV) where they were broadcast and vocalist Dennis found himself as a TV host (the kings of the game). Southern Way
carried out a new album in late 2007 in the Rough Diamons Label. "One Way Ticket To Insanity" was well received by Aarschok'a (Metal Hammer) and LiveXS. LiveXS together the Southern Way Dommelsch'em considered as "Local Hero" in February 2008. Then, the band has chosen a lot of great concerts at the Amsterdam Paradiso it'Paard The Hague.

in 2008-2009 Southern Way plan to tour in the Netherlands and other parts of Europe.
direct translation from the band
Musically, it is difficult to find a band that fit into more term punk'n roll - a quick, sharp playing street punk, combined with the rhythm of old school rock 'n' roll, though some lyrics and expressive elements Bass are reflected more in the direction horrorpunk or even psychobilly. Unfortunately I could not find their first album - if anyone has, ask for information. Personally, I think a strict Southern Way punk'n lead the roll and position of must-have for connoisseurs of the genre.
