The band, led by R.E. Toner on vocals and acoustic, successfully blends "Outlaw Country" with a touch of southern rock and some homegrown Arizona style. Sioux has its own original sound influenced by Waylon Jennings, CDB, Hank Jr., Lynyrd Skynyrd and Arizona Native Roger Clyne. Rob, also an Arizona native, started the band in 2007 when he wrote and produced the first record on his own using a cast of characters, and meshing many musical styles...
