Longhorn Saloon Presents: Reckless

Reckless has its roots in northern Florida where the band’s lead singer Spencer was born, raised and eventually spent his first 3 years of college at Florida State University. It was during this time that Reckless was born as well. From 1999-2001 the band played untold amounts of gigs for little or no money, but establishing themselves as a band to see in Tallahassee. The persistence paid off as they eventually secured a regular gig at “Pot Bellys”, one of the biggest clubs in town. In a natural progression that led them to Nashville, the band managed to meet, impress & sign an exclusive booking agreement with veteran agency Crescent Moon Talent, right on Music Row. Their niche in the South East playing country, southern rock and a growing repertoire of rock had paid off again.
 
Various line-up changes occurred within the band over the years, but eventually a solid rhythm section consisting of Sean from Michigan (drums ), and Adam from Tennessee ( bass ) gave Spencer something to stand on. The latest addition to the band is Joe on lead guitar, who hails from his native Arizona. While Spencer is the only remaining original member, Reckless is as “Reckless” as ever. The band members have always come from varied musical backgrounds, and these days things are no different. Influences range from Merle Haggard to Stryper, Madonna to Led Zeppelin and everything else you can imagine.
 
Reckless is widely known for being just that: Reckless. They mix Country, Rock, and Southern Rock covers with unpredictable stage antics, uncharacteristic of a “country” band. Their live performances have landed them in clubs they had only dreamed of playing, such as the War Eagle Super Club in Auburn, Rhythm & Brews in Tuscaloosa, and The Iron Horse Café in Birmingham. In addition to their steady club presence, they have entertained scores of Greek and other private parties, such as weddings, birthdays, corporate events, golf tournaments, tailgates, and just about anything else you could think of all over the South East. Professional yet unpredictable, Reckless always fills the stage with a rock star presence from down home boys. For this band the party’s just getting started, and will for years to come!!
