The Painkillers don't like to be quickly categorized so when you hear the us, you will quickly know that they are primarily influenced by guitar-driven music and songs with a strong rhythmic beat. For this reason, you will hear the stylings of Eric Clapton, Dick Dale, and Jonny Lang. Interspersed with that is a group of fun, dancing tunes influenced by Chuck Berry, the Rolling Stones, War, Warren Zevon and Van Morrison. To round out things, a tribute to the roots of rock and roll include songs from the sixties by groups like the Yardbirds, Buffalo Springfield, Elvis, Steppenwolf and the Beatles. Once and a while old friends like Wilson Pickett and Bob Dylan will make a musical visit.

The Painkillers continuously work to perfect new material geared to audience feedback for more blues, rock and surf, Painkiller style. Stay and listen long enough and you will be guaranteed a surprise or two.
