Intrepid Artists Int’l is thrilled to welcome The Georgia Thunderbolts to Intrepid Artists Int’l! Hailing from Rome, GA at the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, The Georgia Thunderbolts rise up with a scorching signature style steeped in soulful southern swagger, blistering blues, and raw rock. The band gathers inspiration, ranging from southern gospel to Hank Williams and Neil Young to Little Feat and Lynyrd Skynyrd. They’ve cut their teeth performing with everyone from Black Stone Cherry to The Kentucky Headhunters, and Blackberry Smoke to Ace Frehley. High Energy Rock n Roll that is unmistakenly Southern!

Intrepid Artists Int’l is fired up to welcome Sam Morrow to our family! We think Sam’s sound is a mix of roadhouse rock & roll, bluesy R&B, and country-fried funky-tonk! VERY reminiscent of 1970’s Little Feat and Lowell George. Check it out! We think you are gonna dig Sam Morrow!

Mike Zito’s new album “Life Is Hard” is now available! Stream it and get your copy here. 

Congrats to all who contributed to this 2024 Grammy Winning Record, “Basie Swings The Blues.” Lots’a great names! 

We want to especially congratulate Mr. Sipp for his two contributions, “Let’s Have a Good Time” and “Dirty Mississippi Blues,” both outstanding!
