With his first demo, Athens, Ga.'s
Andrew Nelson establishes himself as a songwriting force to be reckoned with. He and his talented band, The Shotgun Lovers, blast out spiritual, hard-rockin' country and ease through somber, heartfelt ballads in the vein of Whiskeytown, Vigilantes of Love and early-'70s Stones. Nelson's vibrant vocals perfectly deliver his passionate, longing-filled lyrics of family tragedy, friendship and the struggles of life and love. And the band's energetic, affecting performances never fail to impress. Down-home rock 'n' roll doesn't get any more real than this.
