Sunday, July 7 - Behind Bars [Presented by Elston Watt] |
|
These good ole boys met and became lifelong friends when they were just teenagers. They partied to the classic rock music of the time and soon realized they also shared a love for Classic Country. Artists like Merle, Waylon, Hank, Lefty, Willy were all on their playlists, so when they decided to start a band, they pulled music from the likes of those classic icons. When the boys aren't touring North America from Behind the handleBars of their Harleys, you may find them at a field party or dancehall or just settin on a porch laughing, playing and sipping on a cold beverage, while jammin the tunes they grew up with, and enjoying life to the fullest.
