Nine Pound Hammer is an American cowpunk band that has crafted its legacy on high-octane music and an unfaltering dedication to the rock 'n' roll ethos. Hailing from Kentucky, the group was formed in the late 1980s by Scott Luallen and Blaine Cartwright. Their sound, a blistering cocktail of Southern rock, punk, and honky-tonk, quickly earned them a loyal following. Nine Pound Hammer's approach was unrefined and brash, setting them apart from their contemporaries with a raw and genuine attitude that resonated with fans of underground music.

Throughout their career, Nine Pound Hammer has released a string of heart-pumping records, maintaining their reputation for fiery live performances and a down-to-earth persona. Their recent offerings, such as "Rock 'n' Roll Radio" and a cover of "Do You Remember Rock 'N' Roll Radio," pay homage to the classic era of rock while showcasing the band's enduring energy and relevance. Always staying true to their roots, Nine Pound Hammer's works like "The Barn's On Fire (live In Kentucky)" capture the raucous spirit of their live shows, while "Bluegrass Conspiracy" and "Mutants of the Monster: A Tribute to Black Oak Arkansas" reflect their connection to Southern musical heritage. Amid the changing musical landscape, Nine Pound Hammer continues to wield their signature sound as a testament to the timeless appeal of unadulterated rock music.
