working mans songs for lovers aka "stoner country"
Dirk Michener and Travis Catsull started playing New York City style experimental country music in 2002 on a balcony in Denton, TX. Naming themselves after the Pacific Northwest's most famous poet, Charles Potts, seemed to make perfect sense. After playing tons of campfires, house parties, mexican food restaurants and then a W. Coast tour the Windmill Band brought in new members and instruments. Now, their multi-harmonics are a blissed out spectacle of working man's country that never cease to intrigue and entertain. Funny, thought provoking and blatantly honest, their audience includes bikers, poets, folk enthusiasts, old people, indie rock fags and screaming drunk girls.
Charles Potts is not in the band.

Okay guys, so I was listening to The Robotic Arm of Emileye, and I noticed that there was a part in there that reminded me of The Beatles song Birthday... I wasn't sure if it was on purpose or not.. if not you should listen to Birthday and then the Robotic Arm of Emileye.
