A whole lot has changed, but even more has stayed the same for Jimmy and David Lee Kaiser, two brothers who have grown up making music in Texas for most of their lives. Older brother Jimmy Kaiser has been performing since the young age of three. Like most kids, Jimmy began proclaiming that he was going to grow up to be a famous singer when he was still in grade school. He took every opportunity he could find to make music. Throughout his school years, Jimmy sang in choir groups. Outside of school, he was also singing, playing guitar and bass, and writing music for rock and blues bands in Southeast Texas before he turned fourteen. Meanwhile, Jimmy’s younger brother and future band mate David Lee Kaiser was beginning to make some music of his own. Inspired by growing up with a family of music lovers, David got his first drum set at age nine and began to make lots of noise. Early on, David decided that although he had been raised on the music of Hank Williams Jr., Merle Haggard, Willie Nelson, and Waylon Jennings, he wanted to play something with a little more edge to it. It wasn’t long until David and Jimmy combined their musical skills and began playing rock and roll and the blues. They played together so much that their parents built a separate barn for the boys that doubled as a music room where they could practice and play all night long -- and that’s just what they did. The “barn” was where both brothers would practice with bands they played in throughout high school, and it was truly the birthplace of the music that Jimmy and David Lee play today. During their college years, both brothers began to return to their country music roots. They were intrigued and inspired by the musical styles of artists like Robert Earl Keen and Jerry Jeff Walker. The rock and alternative music the brothers were playing at that time began to take on an outlaw country flair, and it gradually crossed over to the open boundaries of alternative Texas country music. After Jimmy and David graduated from Texas Tech and began down their respective career paths in advertising and pharmaceutical sales, they still found some time to make music together, but it wasn’t enough. Having played together and in separate bands over the years, Jimmy and David came to realize that their best times occurred when they were able to share the stage together, but the career paths they were heading down didn’t allow much time for their music. After playing for a couple of years with a Beaumont based band Honky Tonk Jones, they realized that their true passion for music was what they needed to pursue. So that’s exactly what they did. With the songs they had written throughout the years, they left corporate America behind and began playing together in local bars and clubs all over Texas. Their CD entitled Spurlock Road offers a glimpse of what it was like growing up near the Texas Gulf Coast. Hints of the brothers’ musical influences can be found throughout the CD, and it also features a variety of musical sounds and styles that can only be found in Texas.

Jimmie and David have written some really good songs for "Spurlock Road". I believe that it is a great album they have put together. These guys put on a really good show at their concerts. If you have not seen Jimmie and David live, you are missing out.

This is by far one of the best new CDs I have bought so far. I caught these guys playing at the Old Quarter down in Galveston once and was happy to hear they were releasing a CD. You will love "Psycho" and "Galveston Lights"
