Think before you drink. Don’t leave your drinks unattended. It’s not the bartender’s job to babysit your drinks. Take care of your bartenders and servers. They work real hard to make your vacation unforget- table. Have a safe and great Bike Week! PS - Lots of love to Ronnie and Robin. ~ Ron Martin CELEBRATING 3 decades of Roots Rockabilly!

  • THE MUSICAL FEATURES of 2015'S TOP-RANKED COUNTRY SONGS
    THE MUSICAL FEATURES OF 2015’s TOP-RANKED COUNTRY SONGS By Mason Taylor Allen Senior Honors Thesis Department of Music University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill April 22, 2016 Approved: Dr. Jocelyn R. Neal, Thesis Advisor Dr. Allen Anderson, Reader Dr. Andrea Bohlman, Reader © 2016 Mason Taylor Allen ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Mason Taylor Allen: The Musical Features of 2015’s Top-Ranked Country Songs Under the direction of Dr. Jocelyn R. Neal The 2015 top-ten country songs analyzed in this study are characterized by the various formats of their song form, harmonies, and lyrics. This thesis presents a comprehensive study of the structure and narratives in sixty-seven songs that summarizes the distinctive features within those domains of contemporary commercial country music. A detailed description of the norm along with identifiable trends emerges. The song form that features most prominently in this repertory includes a verse-chorus-bridge form with three iterations of the chorus, an intro and outro section, and instrumental sections immediately following each chorus. The top-ten country songs have varying degrees of departure from this typical model. Primary features of the harmonies of these top songs include the frequent use of a double-tonic complex, the absence of a 5-1 authentic cadence, the same chord progression throughout the verse, chorus, and bridge, and the use of only two chords throughout the song. Lyrical analyses show that 2015 songs are continuing the traditional themes about romantic attraction, love, heartache, good times and partying, home, family, nostalgia, religion, and inspiration, within the context of small-town country life that this genre has used for years.

With all the talk of outlaws in the 1970s, Coe was the only true outlaw of the lot, having spent his youth and early 20s in various jails. Now our series is winding up. His records weren't charting as before, but the quality never lets up. UNCHAINED/SON OF THE SOUTH not only includes some of David Allan's best songs, but also incredible duets with Waylon Jennings and his wife, Jessi Colter, as well as Willie Nelson, and Waylon and Willie together. In addition, there's even a duet with the Allman Brothers' guitarist, Dickey Betts.

  • 2020-06-Artist Spotlight | Big Al and The
    Down Home Groovin’ With Big Al and the Heavyweights Times are very challenging right now. There can be no doubt about that. This pandemic is robbing us of our loved ones, the economy is tanked worldwide, once bustling cities now look like ghost-towns, businesses are closing down while many will likely never reopen, jobs are on hold, millions have no income and are in need of food, and to top it all off, we are hunkered down in our homes, wondering when this nightmare will end. Left with only our thoughts, it is all too easy to slip into a deep funk and lose all hope. It is worth remembering, that out of significant pain, some of the best musical genres in the world arose, weaving tales of hardship set to music, that penetrates the depth of our collective souls. The blues originated in the Deep South in the post Civil War era, conveying stories of the pain of slavery and the toll it took on African descendants, while combining African musical traditions, African-American work songs, spirituals, chants, and ballads, as a means of powerful story-telling. Zydeco music is a genre endemic to southwest Louisiana, from primarily French Creole speakers, blending the blues, rhythm and blues, and the indigenous music of Louisiana Creoles and Cajuns. Roots music is a very broad category of music that includes music from the varied origins of American life. It includes bluegrass, old time music, folk music (particularly from Appalachia), Cajun, and Native American music, while serving as a basis for rock and roll, rhythm and blues, and jazz.

  • Pasaporte Americana Us Rails Jaime Wyatt
    PASAPORTE AMERICANA US RAILS JAIME WYATT Para nuestras próximas Huercasa Nights hemos aprovechado su cercanía de fechas y traemos a dos de los representantes más sólidos del presente de la Americana Music. Este próximo 15 de Febrero vienen a visitarnos US Rails y el día 16 de Febrero será el turno de Jaime Wyatt. En ambos caso los veremos en la sala Boite de Madrid (calle Tetuán, 27). US RAILS Es muy posible que todavía sean muchos los que recuerden la actuación en directo durante la segunda edición del Huercasa Country Festival, allá por 2015, de US Rails, el grupo nacido en Philadelphia y que empezó bajo el nombre de 4 Way Street. Muy poco después de aquello, sabíamos de la marcha amistosa de Joseph Parsons y de la intención de continuar adelante del resto de sus miembros. Ivy fue el cuarto disco de estudio del grupo, ya convertido en cuarteto, que publicaron en 2016 y en el que consolidaron su apuesta sonora y sus distintas aportaciones como vocalistas y compositores. La continuación es We Have All Been Here Before, un álbum de versiones de sus canciones favoritas, entre las que encontramos enormes recuerdos de Fleetwood Mac, Neil Young, Warren Zevon, Atlanta Rhythm Section o Jackson Browne, para llegar a los Clash, los Beatles o los Rolling Stones. JAIME WYATT El nuevo disco de Jaime Wyatt, Felony Blues, una referencia a álbumes como Penitentiary Blues de David Allan Coe, es una colección autobiográfica de historias de amor convictas, canciones carcelarias y lamentos de honky tonk. Wyatt tiene esa vieja alma y una voz como una fuerza de la naturaleza; es una intérprete dinámica, que recuerda a los himnos de country rock de los 60 y 70 y a las sinceras baladas country de amor y corrupción.

  • Country Music Entertainer
    COUNTRY MUSIC ENTERTAINER Rowdy Johnson is an American Outlaw steeped in tradition and authenticity. Born and raised in Apopka, Florida with a chip on his shoulder and songs in his heart, Rowdy quickly found that he had a gift for expressing himself through lyrics and song. With a name like Rowdy, it’s only fitting, and yes, Rowdy is his real name! Growing up down South with the sounds of so many greats such as Merle Haggard, Hank Wil- liams Jr., Marshall Tucker Band, Johnny Cash and ultimately Waylon Jennings among count- less others, it was easy to find his inspiration and a sense of freedom in music. Never bowing to labels and with the desire to blaze his own path, it's allowed Rowdy to take all his influences and roll them into what Rowdy Johnson music is all about -- com- plete musical freedom. Speaking of Freedom, Rowdy served in United States Navy in his early years and is the voice of the American Military and as well as a strong advocate for his fellow Veterans. Formed in 2007 out of Tucson, Arizona, the Rowdy Johnson Band burst on the scene quickly due to their original songs and sound. On the stages all throughout Arizona, most notably Tombstone, RJB began to spread their wings and hone their craft. In the “Town Too Tough To Die”, RJB became Legend and it didn’t take long for the word to spread. Somewhere between the unmistakable Outlaw sounds of Waylon, Willie and Classic Southern Rock & Honky-Tonk, that’s where you’ll find Rowdy Johnson- carrying on the tradition.

  • Outlaws and Armadillos: Country’S Roaring ‘70S Capsule Bios of Pivotal Artists
    Outlaws and Armadillos: Country’s Roaring ‘70s Capsule Bios of Pivotal Artists Kris Kristofferson—Along with Tom T. Hall, John Hartford, and Mickey Newbury, Kristofferson elevated the language of country music in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Equally inspired by two key Williams — William Blake and Hank Williams — he was integral in merging the street-level counter-culture with the mainstream. He wrote country classics including “”For the Good Times” and “Sunday Morning Coming Down” as well as Janis Joplin’s rib-rattling rock statement, “Me and Bobby McGee.” He also sang progressive anthems including “Jesus Was a Capricorn.” Willie Nelson — Nelson struggled in the 1960s as he sought to match his songwriting success (“Hello, Walls,” “Crazy”) with progress as an entertainer. Depressed by his inability to do this, he lit out for his native Texas in 1971 and emerged as a uniter of rednecks, hippies, and freaks. In Texas, he found a flowering culture that embraced artistry and eschewed cultural labels. He became, and remains, a Buddha-like figure who is loved and revered by people of varying political and musical perspectives. Waylon Jennings — “It’s the same old tune: fiddle and guitar/ Where do we take it from here?” Waylon sang, in a song that answered those very same questions. Jennings, a Texas native, came to Nashville in the 1960s and was dissatisfied by a glossy “Nashville Sound” that he said fit him “like syrup on sugar.” He fought and won creative freedom and recorded some of the greatest and most distinctive songs in country music history.
