“I’ve just seen the best live act ever.”
That’s a mouthful, coming from one of the greatest entertainers in America, Neal McCoy, just after he’d heard these gifted young men sound-check as his opening act.
“They’ve got everything,” the multi-platinum superstar enthuses. “They’ve got the sound and the look. They move great onstage. They’re great musicians and great guys. There are lots of good bands out there, but you almost never see anyone connect with audiences like these guys. They’ve got all it takes.”
Drawn together by their love for country music, driven to write and perform at the highest level and then to push higher still, their friendship forged on stages from coast to coast and border to border, they were already on a rocket aimed at the stars.
Call it “road-tested country,” the product of talent, passion, grit, and experience. It animates every track of their debut album release, due out in spring of 2008, from the sexy saunter of “Dirty Blonde Bombshell” to the soaring romanticism of “Back There All the Time,” the heartbreak of “How Do I” to the exuberant collision of rock & roll and down-home country on “Turn It Up.”
Their song-writing skills are strong enough to have won the members a deal with Windswept Publishing before they’d hooked up with Lofton Creek. As players, they know how to hit a down-home groove with razor-sharp musical chops – small wonder, since the lineup includes a multiple Grammy nominee and a former university music professor.
As for putting on a show … Well, they’ve passed the Neal McCoy test. That’s all that needs to be said about that …
… except for this: It all becomes doubly amazing when you realize that the DDB has been together for only a little more than three years.
