Reckless Kelly
February 2010

These are very good times for Reckless Kelly. With the release of BULLETPROOF in 2008, the Austin-based roots rockers known for the integrity of their musical approach, the hard-core energy of their live shows and the fierce loyalty of their fans turned up the intensity on their career. The album quickly became the band’s biggest seller, hitting the Billboard 200 and reaching the Top 25 of the magazine’s Top Country Albums chart. It contained the band’s first #1 on both the Texas and Americana charts, “Ragged as the Road,” and earned it a nomination as Best Band or Duo at the 2009 Americana Music Awards, a show that put Reckless Kelly on stage with the country’s best at the Ryman Auditorium. BULLETPROOF also featured “American Blood” and “God Forsaken Town,” widely regarded songs that link Reckless Kelly to a workingclass tradition of socially conscious music that stretches from Woody Guthrie to Bruce Springsteen.

The fact that “God Forsaken Town” was written by Reckless Kelly singer-songwriter Willy Braun with Robert Earl Keen is symbolic of the fact that the band’s standing among its peers has never been higher. The respect band members have earned from everyone from Steve Earle to Kevin Welch can be summarized by Joe Ely, who called Reckless Kelly “my kind of band: hellraising, hard-playing, kick-ass songwriting, feet firmly in the present, but with an amazing knowledge of where it has all come from.”

It is praise that reverberates especially well in the context of the group’s latest work. With new album, SOMEWHERE IN TIME, Reckless Kelly digs deep into its roots, revisiting the music of Pinto Bennett, who with his band the Famous Motel Cowboys influenced a generation of musicians in the Northwest and served as a mentor and idol to Braun and his brother, Cody, whose fiddle, mandolin, harmonica and vocal work help propel Reckless Kelly. In the company of their bandmates — David Abeyta on lead guitar and lap steel, Jay Nazz on drums, and Chris Schelske on bass — the Brauns explore their country influences and re-introduce… more

(buy) – $13.99

Josh Abbott Band

A mere 57 seconds into the opening track of the Josh Abbott Band’s She’s Like Texas, you’re likely to be hooked. One intro, one verse and one chorus are pretty much all that’s required to recognize something special in the Texas-based act.

The winding riffs that open “Road Trippin” have a weighty Southern-rock air about them, though the actual instrumentation-fiddler Preston Wait and guitarist Gabe Hanson breeze through the lines in unison-hints faintly at the western-swing heritage deep in their Texas roots. Bass player Daniel Almodova and drummer Edward Villanueva set a powerful, chugging rhythmic foundation that walks the line between commercial country and raw honky tonks.

And Josh Abbott-the founder, lead singer and chief songwriter for the ensemble-evinces a slight Steve Earle character: breathy, fiery, intense.

Those initial sounds set the tone for…more

Miranda Lambert
December 2009

On the caution-vs.-candor scale, it’s not hard to figure out where Miranda Lambert comes down. “I’m really not careful at all,” she says. “I probably should be. I pretty much don’t have anything to hide, though. I never hid anything growing up. My parents were PIs, so I really couldn’t.”

She may have become a songbird instead of snooper, but in her own fashion, Lambert is following in the family business, as a private investigator of the heart — a trade she recommences with relish in her third album, Revolution. The 25-year-old star’s biggest hits have tended to be her boldest songs, so she’s not about to put a lid on her plain-spokenness now.

“I mean every word I say in every lyric of every song on this record, and every record I’ve ever done,” she declares. “I would never take back one word or lyric or point I’ve ever made, because it’s part of who I am. And there are plenty of artists who wouldn’t do so much of that, if that’s the kind of music you’re into. But if you’re… more

Shelley King

The music of Shelley King draws from and blends a spectrum of roots music styles, but one word succinctly describes it: soulful. Be it R&B, folk, blues, country, bluegrass or rock — or combinations of and variations on those themes — she delivers the goods straight from the heart with a voice that’s splendidly rich and warm and as big as all outdoors. Writing “a proverbial trunk full of instant hits and yet-unheard classics,” as the Austin Chronicle describes her songs, King has risen from the vibrant music scene in the Texas capital city to charm fans across North America, Europe and Japan, win two Austin Music Awards, and be named the Texas State Musician for 2008.

And now she truly finds her sweet spot on her aptly titled new album Welcome Home. Recorded and co-produced with John Magnie, Tim Cook and Steve Amedée of The Subdudes — rated by All Music Guide as “stellar musicians of the swampy jazz-rock-blues New Orleans persuasion” — it’s a roots music tour de force where the spirit of the church meets the soul and spices of the South and the many moods and modes of the human heart.

From the opening and intoxicating sunshine of “Summer Wine,” Welcome Home travels the musical highways and byways below Mason-Dixon to echo the finest traditions and open new musical dimensions… more
