About Route 358

"We want to be recognized as the string band that focuses on lyrical storyline and stays true to our sound, on stage and in studio”-Route 358
​Route 358 is a three piece string band best known for their rich harmonies, original music and overall playful performance spirit - specializing in bending and blending Americana music at its finest.

With a large organic base of followers both on social media and through live performances, their content has had over 10K views since opening for Mary Gauthier at the Aud in Eureka Springs in 2018. The band has performed at notable venues and festivals around the region from Toad Suck Daze, Tontitown Grape Festival, the Auditorium in Eureka Springs, AR, and The Arkansas State Fair. In addition, Route 358 tours regionally in the Midwest and as far reaching as Colorado thus far. 358’s live session video “Fragile Hearts” was selected as one of the top entries from Arkansas in the NPR Tiny Desk competition and led the band to showcase at the Arkansas NPR Tiny Desk event in 2019.

This hardworking band has released two EPs - “Lantern’s Light” and “Fragile Hearts” with a full LP coming mid-summer 2020 titled “Peregrination I.” The band prides themselves on staying true to their acoustic roots, bringing imaginative storytelling alive and connecting with their fans based on their travels, love and love lost along the way of their journey.

For the past three consecutive years, they have been nominated by the Arkansas Country Music Awards for Americana Artist of the Year. Whether they’re performing on Good Day NWA, at a restaurant, brewery or cidery or large venue/festival, you’ll want to see this band live and support their music!
