Biography:

Anyone can pick up exactly what the saints are laying down.

Brothers Matthew and Jeremy Walley have been writing music for as long as they can remember, playing guitar together and developing a chemistry over the last 20 years that cannot be matched. Watching these two guys play together and feed off of each other is an incredible experience. In late 2009, their dream saw reality as Jeff Copeland brought his powerful, soul-filled vocals into the mix. What has resulted is a unique blend of sound...blues driven, often epic guitar riffs backed by strong vocal harmonies and a groovy rhythm to keep the crowd movin'.

In the summer of 2010 The Cadillac Saints released their debut EP titled "Infection", which can be found on iTunes or Amazon.

The band draws a large part of their influence from The Allman Brothers, the Dave Matthews Band, Phish, Bruce Springsteen, Blind Melon, and Marc Broussard.

In late 2011 the Saints added missing link Blake Knowles on percussion. Shortly after his addition the founder of Woodstock, Artie Kornfeld, invited the Saints to be on his radio show on ArtistFirst Radio network.

They are now working on their debut full length album which will be released in the winter of 2012.

These guys pride themselves on their live show, and they will leave your jaw on the floor every single time.

Press:

“At a Cadillac Saints show, you had better dance, because the band isn't going to ask you nicely.”
Casey Philips - Chattanooga Times Free Press

“Best Blues Band goes to the Cadillac Saints. This band has been on the rise the past couple of years and can rock it with the best of them. They are young guys, good musicians, nice fellows and fun to watch. Catch them at a venue in town, soon.”
Bob Payne - chattanoogan.com

“Seeing these acts in local venues is one thing, but having them on stages with completely pro sound is another. The Cadillac Saints were particularly great. They had, I think, one of the best slots of the week being right before Darius Rucker. Two things I noticed specifically were that Scott Chase seemingly wandered in front of the stage checking them out for some time. I heard he was raving about them the next morning on KZ so he must have liked what he heard. The other was the rain. One of our now too common rain storms hit right in the middle of their set...and NO ONE LEFT! I don't know about you but, there aren't a lot of touring bands that I'd be willing to get soaked to watch but, these guys had the crowd captivated. Thank you so much for bringing them in. It's going to be fun to watch their progress! By the way, their new record is fantastic!”
Paul Wilson - chattanoogan.com

“...one of Chattanooga’s hottest bands takes the stage – The Cadillac Saints. These guys have an intense following and a new record out, too. Mixing in some blues with some rock, look for a great show from these guys.”
Bob Payne - chattanoogan.com

“...The Cadillac Saints chased the lightning away on the Tennessee Lottery Stage last night. Two great back to back performances started off another great night on night six at Riverbend. Fans for the Cadillac Saints never budged when the 20-minute rainstorm blew through Riverbend, which resulted in 74 degree temperatures for the rest of the evening and lower humidity. ”
Bob Payne - chattanoogan.com

“What’s wrong with The Cadillac Saints? The band started a year ago and has hit the Chattanooga music scene big-time, but perplexes me. They were already good – but now they are better. How can this be? I heard them play a bit last week and they sounded great. Folks, this is a darn fine band, with a great, clean sound.”
Bob Payne - chattanoogan.com

“The Cadillac Saints are a classic example of consistent hard work, and are all for making Chattanooga a supportive musical hub for everyone by dismissing the super competitive vibe that seemed to be a downfall in our town’s past. Their first full single, “Muddy Waters”, vindicates the raw and natural elements of this band, “If you ain’t a fan of dirty hands, baby please get out the way.””
Tara Morris-Viland - Chattanooga Pulse

“Have you ever bitten in to a peach or an apple and found it to be especially juicy and tasty? Or, have you ever bought a pair of shoes that just fit better than all the others? Such is the case with music, too. Every so often, you hear a band that exceeds your expectations. Here Come The Mummies, Christabel & The Jons, and Tin Cup Gypsy all come to mind, right off the bat. Add The Cadillac Saints to that list. This 5-piece band has a unique sound, a great following, and enough originality to set their music apart from the crowd. (Note to venues: see “a great following”). The band consists of brothers Jeremy and Matt Walley on guitar, Jeremy Muse on drums, Brett Nolan on keys, and Jeff Copeland on bass and some very good lead vocals.”

“In the short time The Cadillac Saints have been together, they have garnered the attention of local venues as well as other local musicians.”
