Phil Round/Snake River Band

He has done post graduate study at the Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA. He formed and fronted the internationally acclaimed band Loose Ties, and toured the world.

All the dude ranches in Jackson Hole know and love Phil's crooning of western songs and ballads. He sings to weeping brides (and their Moms!) while pulling heart strings at wedding ceremonies in the shadow of the Tetons. He's brought houses down at receptions and dance parties with his versatile and exceptionally talented Snake River Band.

This band beautifully and authentically covers every genre of music. People who have hired and heard Phil Round include movie stars, Vice Presidents, Senators and Congressmen, The National Geographic Society, Toyota Corp. of America, Pepsico Corp., and other entities too numerous to mention.

Just a few of the diverse performers Phil has shared the stage with include; Dwight Yokam, David Grisman, Delbert McClinton, James Taylor, Jerry Jeff Walker, Doc Watson, Richard Thompson, and John Prine.

THE SNAKE RIVER BAND FEATURING PHIL ROUND is the region's most sought after dance band for weddings, corporate events or anything that calls for a party.
