The American country trio have recently released their five song EP Sights and Sounds which features unique tracks and artists such as the Gatlin Brothers and the McCrary Sisters.

Bon Aqua, Tennessee--(Newsfile Corp. - April 21, 2022) - Chad, Dennijo, and Andy Sitze have continually focused on dropping sounds that are fresh and unique and that’s exactly what they’ve done through their collaboration with the gospel music quartet The McCrary Sisters as well. When asked about the collaboration, Chad responded with, “Their daddy was a founding member of the Fairfield Four who we used to listen to and learned songs from when we had our family band. It only made sense to reach out to them and pitch the idea about singing with us on a song I wrote called ‘Shining Through My Window.’ Luckily, they also said yes!”

Prior to launching Flat River Band, the members of the band who are also brothers, toured as a bluegrass gospel family band, The Sitze Family. 

The band has performed at Silver Dollar City in Branson, Missouri, and Dollywood in East Tennessee and opened for Natalie Maines from The Chicks, Rhoda Vincent, Alison Kruass, and Ricky Skaggs among many others.

However, the trio rose to fame after their release of the 1977 Gatlin Brothers hit "I Wish You Were Someone I Love". As soon as the Flat River Band recorded the track, it was shared with the Gaitlin Brothers, upon the suggestion of a friend, who then agreed to adding vocals to the song and featuring in the music video.

The band has since then released five independent records with Sights and Sounds being their most recent collection, for which tracks are still being released, with the most recent being ‘Shining Through My Window’.
