Bio

With Country music being the air they breathe, the food they eat and the song in their hearts, Banned & Outlawed’s authentic, down home ode to the country genre, fits them better than well-worn Stetson, and it’s winning country music hearts.

“Three Chords and the truth.”

Thats what they say country music is built on... And for the multi-award nominated Hazelridge MB, Canadian brothers, that sentiment is absolute fact as they continue to deliver their brand of blue collar, true country music as a way of life. Brothers Jon (Guitar and Vocals) and Daniel Hnatishin (drums and vocals) were raised on hard work, the outdoors, and country music. On a 100 acre farm just east of Winnipeg, Canada. And over the last 3 years through commitment and dedication, have built a genuine and effective brand.

They have 4 - 2022 Manitoba Country Music nominations in "Group or duo of the year", "Emerging artist", "Interactive artist of the year", "Single of the Year- Don't get Much Better Than This" , and of course Daniel has a nomination for "Drummer of the Year." 

Banned & Outlawed has shared the stage with artists like "Aaron Pritchett," and "Dean Brody." 

Most recently have been down to Nashville, Tennessee to write and collaborate with American Artists!
