BIO
     
 
    The soft-spoken wildebeest appears in less parts of the nation’s geography than most, not unlike the Muletide Perkins Trio. Pure dabbling unfolds as three pleasantry-desiring song menders come together to relinquish the week’s stress by throwing sound splatters on the beautiful blank canvas of silence or barroom blather. The human spirit has an inquisitive nature. What unfolds is time, captured in recording and limitless in recital; drums, guitar, and bass the culprit.

  OPINION  
     
  "Creeping outta the Rome backwoods with retarded honk, twisted, mischievous predispositions and an icebox full of cold ones, the Muletide Perkins Trio are dumb as doo-doo and yet a lot weirder, funnier and cooler than you'd ever imagine. With handles like Hardup McGizzle and Old Burnt Turn Slick, the boys come off like bumpkin buffoons and their CD, Slop Right Out The Trough, sounds like it was recorded start-to-finish on a boombox during an increasingly intoxicated all-nighter, but there's a bizarre, unrefined undercurrent to their creaky Crazy Horse conflagrations, sorta like what might've happened if the Meat Puppets had been North Georgia rednecks instead of Arizona acid-heads."  
       -Jeff Clark, Stomp and Stammer 4/11/11  
     
  “...the wit of Townes Van Zandt.”  
       -older fella on a bar stool at Brown’s Diner in Nashville  
     
  “Like a Southern Pixies. One of the 10 best bands in the South”  
       -Greg Slattery, promoter, Shallow Palace frontman  
     
  “Sounds good, but if you would not sing, we could still hear ourselves talk.”  
       -Some lady at a fundraiser  
     
  "Slide guitar, heavily reverb-laden vocals, and lyrics with a down-home Southern sound despite featuring such topics as The Beastie Boys and Run DMC."  
       -Flagpole (Athens) 9/9/09  
     
  "Y'all had a woman doing the slut dance to a song about cat shit. Rock & roll history!"  
       -Bryan Schroeder, rock & roll enthusiast
