Thunder in the Valley

Thunder in the Valley were a Twin Cities, MN USA-based rock group that crafted songs primarily in a genre that could only be described as "ragtime rock." Imagine a rowdy saloon from an old wild west movie mashed up with some good ol' garage rock - that was Thunder in the Valley. While they warned on their Myspace page (back when that was a thing) to not call them "Old Time-y," Thunder in the Valley still put a heavy emphasis on ragtime-style pianos paired with high-tempo guitars.
