I am a sucker for a country song. That is saying something as I am from New York City, where there was scarcity when it came to the actual country, let alone the music of rural America. But somehow, even growing up, it seeped into my consciousness and found a way into my heart. And I embrace it all, from the gin soaked barroom ballads of lost love, to the two-stepping honky tonk, to the country rock that was born later but keeps the fire burning bright.

We have a song from Citizens Band Radio to bring you today. They call themselves “HonkyTonkin' Rock-A-Rollin' Whiskey Drinkin' Goodtimin' Footstompin' Music." For some reason, my spellcheck alert didn’t even go off on that one. So all must be right! The band is Jay Jannuzzi on vocals and acoustic guitar, Linda King vocals and mando, Andrew Keenan vocals and pedal steel, Troy Black on lead guitar, Dale Eddington on Drums and Kevin Hummel on Bass. This was a whole pile of people on stage together. No wonder they travel on a vintage bus, named Ol' Waylor. They come all the way from the west – Western Jersey, that is. Click here to see where they will be next, riding that Northeast corridor route, as they play “Rollin’ On Down The Line,” from our 2011 Music Fog Marathon this past March at Threadgill’s in Austin.
