Sixwire

Sixwire is an American country music band from Nashville, Tennessee, United States. The group consists of Andy Childs (lead vocals, guitar), Steve Hornbeak (keyboards, vocals), John Howard (bass guitar), Steve Mandile (guitar, vocals), and Chuck Tilley (drums, percussion). Robb Houston (rhythm guitar) was a former member. The band's name references the six strings on a guitar. Sixwire recorded one album for Warner Bros. Records in 2002, and charted two singles on the Billboard country charts, including the No. 30 hit "Look at Me Now". Five years later, they placed second on the talent show The Next Great American Band, and served as the house band on Can You Duet, another talent show.

In 2019, Sixwire served as the first-ever “house band” for the NFL DRAFT on ESPN, which took place in Nashville. Other recent television appearances include the ALL-AMERICAN NEW YEAR’S EVE on FOX, and as musical guest during the US FIGURE SKATING CHAMPIONSHIP on NBC and Peacock. Sixwire returned to perform pre-game entertainment at SUPER BOWL 56 in Los Angeles, and will again for SUPER BOWL 57 in Glendale, Arizona.

Charitable entertainment events that Sixwire has been involved in have raised nearly $30 million for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Sixwire has also helped raise funds for Scott Hamilton’s Cancer Research Foundation, Convoy Of Hope, American Cancer Society, and many others.
