Album Notes

Shotgun Party puts on a truly American music show. They swing old
school jazz right on into dance hall reminiscent country, with
rapturous results. The songs are all original, with melodies
and lyrics that share stories: urban, bucolic, lively and lonesome.
Christopher Crepps (formerly of the Bastard Sons of Johnny Cash, and
Thelonious Monk disciple) keeps it real, hot and low on the upright
bass; Katy Rose Cox (formerly of Uncle F*cker, Brooklyn Brown Grass, & the Maybelles) roars delightful on the fiddle; and introducing Jenny
Parrott who sings and plays guitar as one who grew up seaside. From
all three coasts (New England, California, and Texas) this trio scours
through and plays with all the rhythms, modes and melodies the
continent has to offer, with a twinge of bizarreness that accommodates
any wide open journey.

Kinky Friedman recommended Shotgun Party on the Imus in the Morning TV show a few weeks ago. So, I ordered a copy. Kinky was right! Good stuff.

I still can't believe it!

I saw these guys a few weeks ago in Houston, and I still can't believe only three people create all that beautiful sound. It's like taking a time machine back into the 1930s with some very, very young people!

You are not from austin. I am not from Houston. We are simply children in search of fun. Artist that come to mind is Billy Holiday, Hank Sr., Harry Nilson, Veggie Tunes, Edith Piaf, and Rosa Flores. Thank you for the visit to Houston. Get ready for take off!!!! e
