   About BUTTERCUP
BUTTERCUP is a 5-piece honky tonk band out of Richmond Va fronted by two sisters and backed by fiddle, pedal, twang, and stomp. This is country like it was in the day -- a giddy-up combination of old-timey drink-cheat-and-cry classics and our own hillbilly-noir originals about loving, leaving and self-medication.

I am indeed ashamed, sisters; my face is turned toward the wall. Please know that despite my conspicuous absence, you're very much in my thoughts, and your music is in my blood.

The light still burns in the window!

Peace ...

oh! No! Tim Jones is a brilliant performer...what great pipes he has!

you know...one of his performances in his earlier days featured the famous bra-being-thrown-onto-the-stage scenarios. in fact, that was the highlight of that show because of its hilarity and shock that it caused.


to this day, people either jokingly or out of sincere sexual infatuation with rock icons (or ironically, unsigned performers) still throw bras up on stage. and furthermore, to parallel the fist incident, at Tom Jones shows today, some fans give an homage to history by reproducing the scene of throwing a bra onto the stage.


that's the history lesson that a nice group like you deserves.


Vive La Coppa di Burro,

h

P.S. fittingly, Coppa means--not only "cup" in Italian, but "Bra size" as well; and "Burro" is how say "Butter.
" The entire phrase literally translates out to say "Live the cup of butter," or "Buttercup!"
