Emerging from Westchester County, New York with a sound rooted in what he calls Blue Jeans Rock, roots rock Americana singer-songwriter Artie Tobia delivers soulful storytelling, hard-earned vocals, and guitar-driven songs drawn from the rhythms of real life. Redtail Revival continues expanding its reach on stages well beyond the Northeast.
Following his return to South by Southwest in 2026 as an Official Artist in Austin — sharing SXSW showcase bills with artists including Ketch Secor of Old Crow Medicine Show and John Popper of Blues Traveler — They continue building momentum on the festival circuit with appearances at Singer Songwriter Cape May in New Jersey (2025 and 2026), Love Earth Music Festival in Florida, a return to Mudfest in Deansboro, New York, and upcoming appearances including the Larchmont Music Festival in Westchester County, New York.
With five full-length albums — including the charting Aberdeen and Driven — Artie’s music blends lyrical depth, heartland grit, Southern soul and uplifting energy, carrying forward a distinctly American strain of roots music he calls Blue Jeans Rock — a lived-in, guitar-driven sound shaped by backroads, working-class stories, and the freedom of classic American rock.
In September 2025, Artie opened for The Marshall Tucker Band at Paramount Hudson Valley, later joining the band onstage for “Can’t You See,” a full-circle moment that affirmed the Southern rock lineage at the heart of his sound.
His longtime collaboration with guitarist Mark Barden anchors Redtail Revival, bringing improvisational spirit and muscular musicianship to a live show that bridges country, rock and blues for their brand of Americana with solid festival energy.
Upcoming projects include a live retrospective release, a solo acoustic album, and the first full-length album as Redtail Revival, while Artie actively positions his catalog for sync licensing opportunities in film, television and media expanding artistic reach and live presence well beyond the stage.
