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 string trio best known for their rich harmonies, original music and playful live performances - specializing in bending and blending Americana music at its finest.

With a large organic base of followers both on social media and through live shows, the band has been touring for the past four years regionally in the Midwest and as far reaching as Colorado. 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's first LP - “Fragile Hearts” received national and international air play while their sophomore LP “Peregrination I," released September 2020, continues in that same trajectory - gaining positive attention from media and radio.

​The band prides themselves on staying true to their acoustic roots, their imaginative storytelling and connecting with their fans along the journey.

​For the past three consecutive years, they have been nominated by the Arkansas Country Music Awards for "Americana Artist of the Year,"  have been showcase artists at the John Hartford Memorial Festival and Mid-West Folk Alliance. Whether they’re performing at a restaurant, brewery or large venue/festival, you’ll want to see this band live and support their music!
