281 South derived from the classic rock influences such as Stevie Ray Vaughn, Aerosmith, Marshall Tucker Band, and of course Skynyrd. What brought them into the Texas Music was bands and artists such as Stoney Larue, Cross Canadian Ragweed, Brandon Rhyder, Pat Green, Reckless Kelly, (Little Brothers) Mickey and the Motorcars, and many more. Staying in touch with there Country roots they perform songs by Haggard, Willie Nelson, as well as Hank Williams Jr.
The band consists of lead vocals, and rhythm guitar Jimmy Sliger. Bass, harmonica, harmony vocals, Phillip Baker. Drummer, Scott Lofton, & Fiddle, Clayton Bankston. Clayton keeps the band grounded with his sweet string renditions. Giving the band the edge they needed to put them in that crowd pleasing category.
You may have seen the band open for acts such as Stoney Larue, Brandon Jenkins, Tommy Alverson, Cooder Graw, Sonny Burgess, Ed Burleson, Joey Green, Kyle Hunt, Mark Mckinney,Ryan Turner and many more. 281 South is not picky where they play as long as there is someone there to listen to their creative style. Whether it be one person or ten thousand they are there for one thing and that is to touch folks with their heart felt, soulful, country music.
Look for 281 South to be moving forward in the Texas Music Scene making a name for their heart felt style of music. Look for the upcoming single (Coming Home Tonight) and album to be spinning on all local radio stations.
We are very thankful for the support from family and friends and enjoy being able to perform on stage.

“Sheer Brilliance” is really the only thing that can be said here! Not only is this collection worthy in every way of your hard-earned money, but extra points are thrown in for the fact that they refuse to self-plagiarize themselves at all costs. 02 Dec 2009 by Bam-Bam
I’ve been a music journalist for more than 10 years. Over the years, many artists and managers have asked me what the best way to break into the European music market is.
Here are some things you can do:
Publish artist press releases, news, and tour dates to the CountryHome Forum on MySpace, http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazine , CountryHome Forum is part of CountryHome, http://www.CountryHome.de , Germany's Premier Country Music Online Magazine. Everything you publish to the CountryHome Forum will be published in my weekly Newsletter which has over 80,000 readers.
Send me CDs and DVDs for review and set up an artist interview with me. All reviews and interviews will be submitted to the magazines I'm writing for. More information for which magazines I'm writing can be found at http://www.MySpace.com/ChristianLamitschka
Upload artist videos to http://www.MyVideo.de and http://www.ClipFish.de . Both websites are like http://www.YouTube.com and uploading videos is free. The websites are completely in German. If you don’t speak German and need assistance, I will help you open an account and upload a video for 25 Euro. Each additional video upload for the same artist name and at the same video website is 10 Euro.
If you have more questions about the European music market or about any of the information I send to you today, please contact me at Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de too.
