Phil Lee is a hipster madman Huck Finn meets Jack Kerouac. If he were a character in 'On The Road' he’d be the guy in the back seat telling Sal and Dean which billboards the Highway Patrol is lurking behind, which diners have the prettiest waitresses, where to find the best pie a la mode in any given two mile stretch of Route 66 and where you can stop and get your hat blocked in an emergency 24 hours a day, no appointment necessary. Or, more likely, he’d be the guy they were barreling down the road to meet for hot coffee and enlightenment...side note, Phil Lee is the only man ever to front The Flyin Burrito Brothers and Crazy Horse
You won’t find new album ‘When I Close My Eyes I See Blood’ on Spotify chasing monthly plays for nickels and dimes, you will find him on the road entertaining his loyal fans, coast to coast, states-side and coming this-side this Summer, . already confirmed for headline spots on two festival stages,
Tommy Womack is twice Winner of the 'Best Song' award in the Nashville Scene Critics Poll. He is the author of two books, in addition to ‘Cheese Chronicles’, his engaging engaging memoirs about this experience with a failing rock band ‘Government Cheese’ the other work is 'Lavender Boys and Elsie', an offbeat Civil War novel (self-published in 2008). Tommy's eighth full-length album 'I Thought I Was Fine' was released in 2021 and received an "A" review from veteran critic Robert Christgau, who claimed that "never has this Nashville lifer made more of his knack for words and the tunes...so funny and humane that you can't help rooting for him."
Ben Reel described as the Irish Springsteen released his 11th studio album 'Come a Long' reaching No.9 in the Euro Americana chart and No.28 in the IBBA world blues chart. His ‘Nashville Calling` album which was released in March 2020. Produced by Will Kimbrough and Tommy Womack and featuring Garry W Tallent on bass from the E Street Band. Recorded in Nashville this was a dream come through for Ben. The album went to No.1 in the Euro Americana charts voted by respected DJ's and critics all over Europe. Ben was selected to play an official showcase at Folk Alliance in Memphis and has toured as double bill with Tommy in the U.S and also with legendary American folk singer/songwriter Eric Andersen in the UK & NL. While in Nashville he was invited to play the famous Bluebird cafe on a number of occasions. Ben has built a loyal fan base in various countries around the world and continues to be be one of the hardest working troubadours around.
