Event Details
The Boomswagglers are country....down to the bone. They possess a "boom-chicka" sound and thump that has been lost in country music for sometime, and for the most part. The Boomswagglers were signed to Hillgrass Bluebilly Records in late 2009 and will be releasing their debut CD on Hillgrass Bluebilly in early 2010. Hillgrass Bluebilly is ringing the dinner-bell for the "Raw & Primal" roots revolution & the Boomswagglers have their sleeves rolled-up & ready to chaw, pick & yodel, bringing country music back to the table for the workin man.


Hellbound Glory:


As the namesake suggests, HELLBOUND GLORY is barreling through the gates of country music on a one-way track to their rightful place as the band to be reckoned with. Cutting lyrics, timeless characters, and scorching vocal delivery combine to yield a potent sonic distillation unique to this Reno, NV based trio. Front man, Leroy Virgil, summons from the very foundations of country music an onslaught of raucous melodies reminiscent of the genre's finest. Eric "Rico" Peterson picks scorching licks from his signature lap-steel with death-metal dexterity. Frank Medina, lays down the bass with a sureness and groove to round out a sound that, seemingly, is stirred by twice the bands number. "If you're gonna sing it proud, you gotta live it first!" - "Cliche Country Singer" And don't that pretty much say it all? HELLBOUND GLORY has forged their reputation on the road; the band's name itself is a promise to their fans and live performance ethic. With a breakneck touring schedule; the band is a workhorse in the genre. Criss-crossing North America for the better part of the last decade; HELLBOUND GLORY continues to conquer new stomping ground nightly on the strength of three full length releases; "Scumbag Country," "Old Highs & New Lows," and "Damaged Goods." Perhaps fittingly, the underground following, like so many minions, continue to belt the gospel that is HELLBOUND GLORY. But alas O' Ye Faithful, this is not a band that is destined for underground obscurity. Indeed, a chorus of likeminded Scumbags won't have it that way and neither will Leroy, Eric, or Frank. With new unreleased songs already holstered; HELLBOUND GLORY is on track for an early fall full length release. “I’m spittin’ blood but still runnin’ my mouth and I ain’t goin’ down til the lights go out!” – “Til The Lights Go Out”

Cade Callahan
Cade is rare because he is a NATIVE Austinite. He cares for his fellow drunks and he's always ready with a kind word for EVERY dumb motherfucker in the world. That is becoming rarer and rarer in the world ever since its become cooler to hate shit than like shit. He also plays some amazing, old-school, real-deal country.
