      @@phishermanjohn shirts aren't always accurate. Besides, putting 'southern rock band with a mix of country' wouldn't be cool. But let's be honest: Broken window serenade, Virginia, Road of life, Lonely E Tx nights, and Nobody knows her name are country tunes.

    One of the coolest things to me is seeing the progression of that old Gibson. I go back and watch a video of Even playing Good Lord Lorrie alone from 12 years ago with the same guitar, nice and pristine, and now to see it well played with the finish coming off.
    It’s really cool to see the progression of instruments along with the artist.

    Great to see the boys back together. This brings back so many memories having lived in Texas and seeing them live. I’m in the Midwest now, and if anyone asks about the music I listen to, I’ll tell them about red dirt, and I’ll play this song to start. These boys defined the genre and are still true to their roots. Tipping my hat to you gents from Indiana.

    Empty promises I've given
    Hollow heart beats in my chest
    And every word of sterling silver
    Stirred butterflies beneath your breast
    Still untouched by ties a-binding
    Going where the gulf breeze blows
    No ring of gold around your finger
    No ring of brass run through my nose
    Headlong for the wall now honey
    Still coming up like a rose
    Dead still in the garden
    Waiting for the reveille
    And the dawn is yet to dry the dew from off my Sunday clothes
    That mean old sun better rise up soon if its ever gonna set on me
    Hear the song she sang in darkness
    Tearful, fair, and free and fine
    You're the one she softly whispers
    My canary in the mine
    Headlong for the wall now honey
    Still coming up like a rose
    Dead still in the garden
    Waiting for the reveille
    And the dawn is yet to dry the dew from off my Sunday clothes
    That mean old sun better rise up soon if its ever gonna set on me
    I met a man, pale gray with wisdom
    Showed me faith will come collect
    Hard tempered steel bites at my ankles
    Soft cotton rove burns at my neck
    Headlong for the wall now honey
    Still coming up like a rose
    Dead still in the garden
    Waiting for the reveille
    And the dawn is yet to dry the dew from off my Sunday clothes
    That mean old sun better rise up soon if its ever gonna set on me
    That mean old sun better rise up soon if its ever gonna set on me

After watching their performance, I knew they were destined for bigger things. Super friendly & hard working bunch of guys! Evan’s a hell of a musician!

    I've been a red dirt fan from WV ever since I heard my first Charlie Robison song. For some reason I missed the Troubadors early on. I listened to a lot of CCR, Reckless Kelly, Micky, Jason Boland, Stony Larue. When this album came out it became my favorite album. Going back and listen to their other music, how did I miss these guys? Keep in mind. There's not a red dirt presence in WV. You have to search and find this music. All that said. What an amazing album from the first note to the last. It's kind of cool now to have all their previous albums open up to me. It's like I'm getting all this "new" music. I love it all.
