In the sprawling realm of the music industry, some bands transcend the ordinary and create a resonating harmony. One such band is Few Miles South, an indie musical phenomenon that has been captivating hearts and minds with their soulful melodies and authentic storytelling. In this exclusive interview, we had the privilege to sit down with Few Miles South (@fewmilessouthmusic) and gain insight into their remarkable journey, their unique approach to connecting with fans, and the role Blankstyle has played in their artistic odyssey.
Building a Thriving Fan Base and Blankstyle’s Impact:
To begin, Few Miles South’s journey to musical success is marked by their commitment to real-life connections. The band shares that their strong fan base was cultivated primarily through touring – an opportunity to meet new people, play live shows, and forge genuine connections. “We are not tech-savvy individuals,” they admit, acknowledging their preference for tangible interactions over digital numbers. However, Few Miles South recognizes the value of developing an online presence, where they strive to create a sense of community that extends beyond the stage.
That being said, Blankstyle has been a pivotal partner in Few Miles South’s pursuit of expanding their community. The band appreciates how Blankstyle’s high-quality merchandise offers fans a tangible way to show support and be part of their journey. Whether it’s a hat or a t-shirt adorned with Few Miles South’s emblem, these pieces serve as symbols of belonging and contribute to a growing network of fans who proudly wear their heart (and music) on their sleeves.
Featured in the photo above is our Yupoong Retro Trucker Hat in black. The Yupoong Retro Trucker Cap by Flexfit is a snapback, six-panel, mesh-back hat featuring a structured, mid-profile fit, and curved visor. This hat is a fan-favorite amongst those that sell merch and decorate their own hats. Reason being is its snapback closure. Having a snapback closure ensures that the hat fits a wide variety of heads. Therefore, children and adults alike can share the same hat! Not to mention it’s quality and ability to last, especially at the pricepoint.
Crafting a Unique Brand in the Music Industry:
Standing out in the music industry demands an authentic brand identity that resonates with fans. Few Miles South embraces this challenge wholeheartedly. Their visual aesthetics draw inspiration from nature and outdoor adventures, mirroring their rural surroundings in South Georgia. Dogs, which play an integral role in their lives, find a special place in their imagery. As a result, they complement the band’s down-to-earth and relatable vibe. This approach extends to their merchandise as well, with unique designs epitomizing their signature “chicken picking” guitar style.
Behind the Scenes of Content Creation:

Their love for the outdoors is evident in the picturesque landscapes and dog-filled escapades that grace their social media. The band shares snippets of their creative process – from studio sessions and soundchecks to exhilarating moments on stage. This authentic portrayal invites fans into their world, offering a genuine connection that transcends the screen.
Merchandise as a Bridge to Connection:
Few Miles South understands that merchandise isn’t just about products; it’s a bridge between artists and their supporters. Because of this, their approach is clear: if they wouldn’t wear it or use it themselves, it doesn’t make the cut. This philosophy ensures that every item in their collection carries their passion and authenticity, fostering a deeper connection with their fans.

The journey for Few Miles South doesn’t stop here. Also, as they gear up to release their next full-length album, the band’s focus remains on making heartfelt music.
