This Weeks Show 6/7/08

Alrighty,,,this week's show will feature new music from some big dudes, and soon to be big dudes, in the Texas/Red Dirt scene. First, the brand new single from Honeybrowne, "Mile By Mile". It's from their brand new CD of the same name. The album drops June 17th. For more information on Honeybrowne check this http://www.honeybrowne.net/

Second, we'll be spinning the new single from Reckless Kelly, "Ragged As The Road", from their new CD, Bulletproof. That album will hit the stores on June 24th. For more information on Reckless, go crazy here http://www.recklesskelly.com/

Third, we've got a new single called, "Teardrop Texas", from a band called Leavin' Sundown. The band is fronted by former Perfect Stranger lead singer, Steve Murray. The band also has a couple of very good friends of mine, Jimmy Taylor, and Mike Ward. We all worked at a very well known little honky tonk in east Texas called, Jitterbugs. Interesting fact...Jimmy produced and engineered Willie's album Nacogdoches, and also owns his very own recording studio in said town. He's been playing bass guitar for years and can't seem to be able to keep his hands off his lovely wife....I think they have about 12 children (slight exageration). Way ta go Jimmy! Mike Ward worked as stage manager/monitor engineer/guitar tech for former Columbia Records band, Ricochet. For a while there Mike was also unable to keep his hands off the women,,but now at least he's only keeping them on one. You dawg!
