Show
MIKE MANN and the NIGHTRIDERS is officially called COWBOY SOUL!!!
COWBOY SOUL, America's Premier Cowboy Band, are the creators of a new style of music called Cowboy Soul. Fusing the storytelling of country music, the rhythms and harmonies of soul music, and the power of rock, Cowboy Soul is a high-energy sound that is crushing the barriers of country music.
From the beginning, the band's goal has been to make music that moves people across ethnic and music lines, and to bring country music to a much wider audience. The band seems to be reaching its goal, as their audiences are truly a multiethnic mix, and are often full of people that have been brought to country music by COWBOY SOUL's dynamic sound.
In concert, COWBOY SOUL explode onto the stage with an incredible live show. That's why they've been on the roster with such top acts as Brian McKnight, Michael Martin Murphy, and Sinbad.
WHAT THE PRESS IS SAYING ABOUT……
C O W B O Y S O U L
“Cowboy Soul stakes its claim to a unique blend of soul, country, and pop influences…”Feel Something” -- with it’s straight-ahead country/rock backbeat and back-road gritty guitar work – work up enough steam and sweat to solidify Cowboy Soul as a legitimate player on today’s music scene.” SAN DIEGO UNION TRIBUNE
“On songs like “Fool For Your Lovin,””We Love Country Music” and “Mine Tonite,” Cowboy Soul delivers genuine down-home and earthy music, not a hybrid or pop-flavored approximation…Mike Mann is a steady, effective vocal force, while lead guitarist Mark Drummond spearheads the musical backing, with fine contributions from his mates…”
CITY PAPER/NASHVILLE
“Cowboy Soul has many influences in their music, from Rock to Blues, R&B to Jazz, and of course, Country to Soul…(guitarist Mark) Drummond) delivers his leads in a tasty style, easy to digest, and always well-suited to the song at hand…a multi-genre band whose star is rising…Cowboy Soul are currently riding a wave of popularity, both in the City of Angels and everywhere else they perform.” GUITAR 9 MAGAZINE
“Cowboy Soul is a band with a sound that gets just about everyone’s foot tapping...in an age where arguably the best rapper out there is a white guy from Detroit, Mike Mann and his band of rockin' cowboys challenge the notion that country artists are only of the blonde-blue-eyed stock. Cowboy Soul has arrived and their message is two-fold; Country Music is for everyone and "Let's have a good time!." ROCKWIRED (SYNDICATED RADIO)
“Cowboy Soul nicely snatch you by your collar, pleasantly put your foot in your behind, and leave you pleased as a pig in slop..a blend of hillbilly and hip…an ingenious mix of country hick and city grit…from first cut to last on the album, leave you smacking your lips for more…”
DWIGHT HOBBS
“This is some dang good music, pardner..lead vocals are strong and soulfully beautiful; the execution is flawless…guitars are intricate and diverse, mixed precisely with the hard driving bass and keyboards.” SOUTHBOUND BEAT MAGAZINE
“There are a lot of players in this band and they all have talent..The standout is bandleader Mann, who plays acoustic guitar, harmonica, and handles most of the lead vocals…the group’s energy level projected pure stamina; each member exuded a high level of fervor…Cowboy Soul are cultivating a vision that crosses ethnic and music lines, hoping to bring country music to a wider audience…judging by the size of the crowd at B.B. King’s, they just may be on to something. In any case, these guys do it with flair, talent and fun.”
MUSIC CONNECTION MAGAZINE
“A Cowboy band playing soul music? It certainly is a successful recipe for Mike Mann and his Los Angeles-based band Cowboy Soul…Mann and company have turned in a most entertaining self-titled debut recording, full of great soulful harmonies and very fine Mann compositions, all backed by a great soul band…this is one you are really going to like from a band I am looking to hear great things from in the future.” BLUESROCKERS
“COWBOY SOUL is a band with a sound that gets just about everyone's foot tapping…In an age where arguably the best rapper out there is a white guy from Detroit, Mike Mann and his band of Rockin' Cowboys challenge the notion that country artists are only of the blonde-blue-eyed stock.
