      TruckerMan1, good luck with that fantasy brother. Just be grateful you found this bridge back to how real Outlaw Country is meant to be played. Tune out all the other BS and throw your support into Sturgill, Jamey Johnson, Cody Jinks, Whitey Morgan, Creed Fisher and their kind. Let the majority choke on whatever it is that’s been “promoted” as today’s music. Wear your love for this brand as a badge of honor 💪🏻

    Hard to believe Laur Joamets was playing heavy metal music in Estonia. He has such a great handle of pure rockabilly guitar playing and really brings a lot of uniqueness into his solo lines. This was hands down Sturgill's best lineup.

      Dunno where you all been but Nashville turned its back on Johnny Cash about the time his TV show was cancelled in the 70s.
      You speak out against the criminal justice system and the bull $hit wars you’ll get black balled. Google American Records Johnny Cash add that appeared in Rolling Stone magazine. It wasn’t Nashville that brought Johnnys music back. It was American Records.
      Ain’t no mystery why they don’t push John Simpson. Look for Sunny Valley Folded Flag here on you tube and give that a listen.

    Saw him last night in Sacramento at Harlow's, absolutely the last time he'll be playing that sized venue. Sold out show, and straight up the best club show I've seen in years. The band is unbelievably tight, the lead guitarist is stupid good, the crowd (a great mixture of pure country fans, hipsters, etc) was WAY into it. Sturgill is the real deal.

    Just saw tonight for first time, on the Late Show...great lead guitarist...great sound. I am now an official fan...will b finding more of theiir music. Ironic twist...country is not my "go to" music, unless it really moves me, n this band's music sure does the trick!!!
