THE FENDER BENDERS
Fort Worth, Texas | Established 1997

The Fender Benders are a four-piece band from Fort Worth, Texas, established in 1997. They put their own spin on familiar songs, blending blues, rock, jazz, and soul while keeping the choruses everybody loves. Fronted by longtime Fort Worth singer Sam Perez, the band brings together Birdsnake Brown’s jazz guitar background, Amanda Brown’s award-winning bass playing, and drummer and producer Jon Mosig.

Fans request the band’s originals, too. On a typical night, when it suits the venue, roughly a quarter to a third of the set is Fender Benders originals. Available to discuss venue shows, private parties, and company celebrations.

The Fender Benders won Best Blues Band in the 2024 and 2025 Fort Worth Weekly Music Awards (the Panthies). Amanda Brown also won Best Bassist in the 2025 awards, presented in 2026.
