Americana~Island Music

   Tiki Cowboys is a cast of well seasoned music professionals coming together to create their unique "Beach Blues and Tiki-Twang" sound. Founder Eric "Baron" Behrenfeld is a drummer, percussion and ukulele musician working with some of Chicago's finest local talent. Tiki Cowboys perform with guitar, harmonica, percussion, ukulele and/or bass as required for the music event to be played. From 2-5 musicians are available as the Tiki Cowboys. We are based out of Chicago, Illinois and work in our Great Lakes tri-state region all year round.

   The band's musical influences range from the classic country of Hank Williams and the island-country music of Jimmy Buffet to exotica by Arthur Lyman, Hawaiian music by "IZ", with roots planted in Chicago Blues legends like Howlin' Wolf and Muddy Waters plus the groovy rock-blues stylings of Steve Miller and Stevie Ray Vaughan. Together these influences combine for the Tiki Cowboys to create a Rural, Tropical, Urban music experience that crosses music genre lines unlike any other band.

Tiki Cowboys band is available for your Private Club or Corporate Event, Neighborhood Festival, Luau, BBQ, Birthday, Tenant Appreciation Party, or any function desiring island-country and blues flavored acoustic music.
