Wrong turn on the 49
Flashing blue neon sign
Middle of a ghost town
Stairs going underground
Old juke joint I would never
Walk in
Tripped and fell into
Band’s playing ZZ Top
Smells like a head shop
Shootin ’ pool shots of Jack
Graveyard out the back
The bartender says smoke em’
If you got em’
Light it up at the Rock Bottom yeah
We’re dancing like the world is gonna end
The zombie in the prom dress is my new best friend
Knockin back the whiskey like an Irish wake
What the hell we’re gonna fall into the ocean anyway
Drop your chains at the door
Crawlin on the dance floor
Gonna give it to your straight
The devils got the flood gates
The bartender winks all your sins are pardoned
End of days at the Rock Bottom yeah
Rock Bottom Yeah
Rock Bottom Yeah

 THE KELLER SISTERS:
Sheryl and Kerry grew up in San Francisco and started singing and performing together in glee clubs, choirs and musical theater when they were very young .
Daughters of film and theater performer " Eileen Christy " the summers were spent on the road learning from the best . They were also discovering guitars and folk music. They started playing as a duo in their teens performing an eclectic mix of folk, country rock and standards.
After years playing rock and blues with the " Blue Tuesday " band in the San Francisco Bay area they decided to reform the duo and in 2012 " The Keller Sisters " began performing at local venues armed with original songs and started getting booked at songwriter showcases which was a new and exciting experience. Their original music combines storytelling , personal experience , humor and warmth and their style has been called American Folk Pop.
The sisters released their first CD "Shine" in November 2012 and followed up with the release of their second CD " House of Cards " in December of 2014. Songs from both CDs have received honorable mentions in 2 International songwriting competitions and they are currently in the planning stages of their 3rd CD.
They have played local venues , clubs , showcases and festivals and are having so much fun sharing their music and making new friends. In 2015 the sisters are focusing on reaching a wider audience and they are thrilled to be opening for Dan Hicks and the Hot Licks on tour in the Pacific Northwest in May.
