Album Notes

Features the song "Leaving" as heard on the HBO series "True Blood." Back around the turn of the century down in the Big Easy, four good ole boys grew exhausted of the trail country music had taken, so they began paying tribute to roots music greats in neighborhood bars and backyard parties. Driven to succeed they ride on, developing the unique old-school music style down the original country path. They first saddled up a posse of three- Whiskey T, Red Stick, and BIG Country.
Whiskey T hails from upstate New York, but began his guitar pickin' ways in the south of Mississippi before making his way to New Orleans in 1995. Taylor Garrett, now known as Red Stick, made the short trip down river from Baton Rouge around the same time. The two met and began strumming together soon afterwards. Realizing their love and quest for music, they set out to be heard, but they needed a lead singer.
Lifelong friend of Red Stick, Brian "BIG Country" Ayres had returned from travels west and little convincing was needed for him to join his friend in the most interesting city in the world. The trio began writing and playing weekly gigs at the Mystic Café and The Bulldog, but a low end was surely missing. Kentucky bass player, Bourbon Brad Klamer soon joined the gang, solidifying what would become the acoustic quartet, COUNTRY FRIED.
With workaday woes, an album in the saddlebag, and an itchin' for the road; the guys are ready for action. Their originals are a branch off of old-time country with harmonica and harmonies, but covers of classic country and various "countrified" roots songs keep the crowd singing along. You can catch them all around the Crescent City, and at home at the Kingpin Bar on Sundays, where country music fans are appearing miraculously from behind the velvet Elvis's. The hunt for New Orleans twangers shall continue, but on the road is where they're headed. Every honky tonk and every roots music festival in every city or down home town should have some hot COUNTRY FRIED on the menu.

Ol' Time Country with a kick!

These pay homage to the real roots of country music, but then add so much more! They combine great vocal harmonies with uniqe songwriting, and excellent musicianship to give the listener a totally new sound in country music. Basically these guys jam, and then will play you an old J.C. favorite to get your feet movin'. Pick yourself up a copy or if the Nawlins' are check out a live show. Be hip to the Country Fried, THE HOTTEST THING in country music in a long time.

Play me some Country Fried, and pour me a drink.

This is a complete album, which is hard to find these days. No need to skip any tracks, this is pure country music in overdrive. Great, unique lyrics and beatiful vocal harmonies make this band very original. Straight outta New Orleans, they keep it real to there heroes, Waylon, Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, but put a Country Fried Stamp on it all. Great buy, what are you waiting for, BUT IT NOW!!!

Handmade music with country soul
author: Tequilla Tom
                            
If you like acoustic music, get yourself a copy of "Nowhere no More."  Hand-made music with originality. The great lead vocals of "Big Country" somtimes haunting, sometimes Johnny Cashish, but always good. The driving bass of "Bourbon Brad" is the backbone of the old and new Country Fried Tunes. The great songwriting of "Whiskey T" and Cole, is just superb, and "Redstick" has the timing of a grandfather's clock. Listen for yourself, and buy this record, or stop by and check out a live show and buy them a Shot! They deserve it, a well balance record that all music fans can enjoy!
