Nashville. The Band is a Chicago-based, comedic band whose message is a curious blend of fanatical patriotism, bleeding-heart liberalism, and a childlike, yet mournful, devotion to Rock -N- Roll. Chester A. Hardwick, Maximillian Barfield, and Billy Piccadilly, who hail from suburban Louisville Kentucky, have been on a mission since 2009 to spread their message of Rock and Roll, America, and Equality to all.
