Whiskey ‘n’ Wine

René Ayala (vocals, acoustic guitar)

Jamie Carretta (vocals, percussion)

Richard Dunlop (vocals, electric guitar)

Jamie & René have been friends and songwriting partners since 2004, not long after she joined the church choir he directed. Their rock band, the Underdogs, played South Bay venues for several years in the mid-2010’s. During the pandemic, they returned to songwriting and were signed by Nashville-based Reel Muzik Werks LLC, where they have collaborated with fellow composer/artists in songwriting circles.

Richard had been in a variety of bands playing local venues, when a chance meeting at a backyard party in 2021 introduced him to Jamie & René. It took another year before they hooked up again to form Whiskey ‘n’ Wine.

We are excited to play our music mix of pop/rock/folk/country/r&b covers and originals for you! We’re available for private parties, events, and venues throughout the South Bay. Hope to play for you soon!
