Donna The Buffalo is an American band founded in 1989 in Trumansburg, New York, with roots deeply planted in the eclectic and often socially conscious folk-rock scene. The band's name is a play on the phrase "Dawn of the Buffalo" and reflects their embrace of communal vibes and a nomadic spirit. They're known for their distinctive, groove-heavy, and danceable music, which is a hybrid of Americana, roots rock, zydeco, country, folk, and reggae.

The core of Donna The Buffalo's sound is formed by Tara Nevins (vocals, electric guitar, fiddle, accordion, and washboard) and Jeb Puryear (vocals and electric guitar), who are both the primary songwriters and the only continuous members throughout the band's history. Their musical synergy has been the driving force behind a dedicated and ever-growing fanbase known as "The Herd." Albums like "Dance In The Street" and "Tonight, Tomorrow And Yesterday" exemplify their ability to merge deep lyrical content with organic and danceable rhythms, while "Positive Friction" and "Life's a Ride" showcase their ongoing evolution as a band committed to delivering heartfelt music with a message. Throughout their career, Donna The Buffalo has been a musical staple in the folk and roots festival circuit, contributing to their status as one of the most respected, eclectic, and consistent Americana bands over the last three decades.
