I don’t usually listen to this genre but on a recent trip I borrowed a car and this CD was my only listening choice. Since it was a 2 hour drive each way, I got a chance to get acquainted with them. It really is good music!

[...] The Way You Can Get, the Gourds (from the Yep Roc release Haymaker!) These guys continuously amaze me. They are so frequently classified as a country and bluegrass band but it is all a façade. These guys are rockers at heart and this rockabilly song is all the proof that I need. (See Kelly’s full Twangville review here.) [...]

Just announced – Dan’s Silverleaf on the 15th. CD release party, and I guess the guys quit their chain smoking ways as it is a smoke-free show! yup.

What a talented band! The last time they played here in Denton, Texas, was a real humdinger, with them closing their Dan’s Silverleaf set with Neil Young’s Cortez the Killer at 1:30 am with Brent Best of the Drams on lead vocals. I can only hope they make it back this way again. shannon
