We were blown away and couldn't wait til their set was over to purchase the CD, our tongues were hangin'. Their sound and songs are real "texicana"-looking forward to the next release, soon, we hope. Great guys too!
These guys are fabulous. We saw them at the Gruene Dance Hall and bought this CD before the second song was over. They are planning to put out another CD in the near future. We heard some of the songs that will be on it and loved them. We love the first CD and we will buy their second CD the minute it is available.
I caught these guys in Dallas, at Adairs in April/05. Had to have their CD, bought it, lent it to my Dad, then my Uncle, and 3 or 4 of my closest friends. Have barely seen it since......When We Reached the Colarado is one we all know, and is a staple of all our jams.....
I recently sat down at a jam session with the McKay brothers. My cousin, Corby Schaub is their new drummer, mandoline, and dobro player. Seeing them play some of their own songs and some great old songs by Jonny Cash and Ray Price was amazing. Noel and Holland are two of the most talented guitar players and song writers I have ever met. If you ever have the chance go see these guys live. I predict that they will explode onto the scene in the next year or so.
These guys are AWESOME songwriters and performers--go see them if you haven't--you'll love it!
I think these brothers are wonderful. It is great music. I just wish the words were on the cover sheet so I could learn Spanish. I listen to them all the time. Hope another CD comes out soon.
The CD arrived two days ago and what a pleasure it is.
There are strokes of genius on this CD..."When I Reached the Colorado" and "Harrisburg". These two songs alone set them apart from the mainstream.
I don`t think they should waste their talent on the Honky Tonk stuff though....those sort of songs have been done by thousands before them and they are a dime a dozen.
Looking forward to the new CD. I hope we get to hear a little bit more of Hollin on the next one....his voice is too good not to be heard more.
I just saw them live in Kerrville and was enthralled.
I can`t wait to introduce their music to my fellow Austrians and Brits.
