Bound South Unleashes New Single “Murder River”

February 16, 2026 — Leave a comment

Hailing from Muscle Shoals, Alabama, Bound South is a five-piece that explores the many facets of southern rock. The band formed in 2024, and now, after releasing their debut self-titled album and a couple of lineup changes, they are back with their introduction to this new era, “Murder River.”

The song is a dark one, telling the tale of a location with a bloodcurdling past. The band’s Southern roots are heavily prevalent in the style of the music, a mix of country, blues, and an eerie folksy vibe. Vocalist/bassist Eri carries the atmosphere a step higher with the strength of her voice, the grit and the hint of twang putting the cherry on top.

Check out “Murder River” below, and/or on your chosen streaming service, and make sure you follow Bound South so you can keep up-to-date on all they have going on! More new music is coming soon, so keep your eyes open!
