Cuts from the CD go over so well with live crowds that one local bar has said that Straight Shooter is the most played CD on the juke box.
It all got started when the band played a few cuts written by singer / songwriter Bud at a live gig last year Three different people the band had never met offered to pay for the studio time if they would record their music. One song " the Beer Song" a story about a group of guys who just came to drink beer is a particular favorite.

2000 people the band played 5 songs not even on their play list including one, they had never done before.
In the near future the band intends to keep gigging and they have been approached about doing a European tour. In 2006 they will be releasing their new cd "Shake Your Country". We would like to pick up some gigs as a warm up act for some bigger acts. That way we could get the exposure we need to attract a CD deal with a major label. In the meantime we are writing new stuff and staying busy. We all have careers during the day but our real love is music. "
