Zeta Kappa Chi Alumni Association

In the heart of the American landscape, where the open road stretches out beneath a wide, endless sky, a lone red-tailed hawk soars high above—a symbol of freedom, resilience, and the untamed spirit of the wild. Artie Tobia’s music was born from this spirit, drawing inspiration from the raw, unfiltered energy of the American experience.

The Redtail hawk, represents and embodies the band’s deep connection to the rich traditions of Roots Rock Americana music, a genre that, like the hawk, is both grounded and soaring. Tobia’s music speaks to the band’s purpose of breathing original new life into timeless stories that are specific and thus universal reawakening the echoes of the past with a fresh perspective with lyric driven melodies and energy. At the helm is Artie Tobia, a seasoned roots rock Americana artist whose voice is as rich and resonant as the tales he tells.

Artie’s music weaves together the threads of blues, rock, folk, and country, reflecting his own journey and the enduring spirit of the American landscape. With Artie leading the charge, this is more than just a band; it’s a revival of the heart and soul of Americana, capturing the essence of the open road and the stories that define our lives, all through the power of music that’s as timeless as the land it was born from.

“You can’t fake a voice like Artie Tobia’s — it’s something you have to earn. Every note, like every lyric, rings with a hard-lived authenticity that, even during this so-called explosion of “roots rock/ Americana, is in very short supply” – BB King Blues Club NYC
