The "Getocowboys" formed in 2006 and released their first CD "Hard Luck Symphony" in April 2008. Comprised of songwriters Luke Adair (guitar, banjo, vocals), Josh Droegemueller (violin, mandolin, guitar, vocals), and Tres Womack (guitar, vocals). Adair made his debut as a producer on Hard Luck Symphony, while each member penned at least three songs.
Adair and Droegemueller were both members of the Texas Country band "Luke and B" until 2007, contributing to their 2007 release "Downtown."
Womack fronted his own band since 2004 and released two CD's, "Real Simple" (2005) and "Freak Show" (2007) during that time.
Their style lies somewhere between "Whiskeytown" and "WIlco." All three members assume the role of lead vocalist on "Hard Luck Symphony" which gives the record a compilation feel. Singer/Songwriter Kimberly Kelly (Sometimes and Ride Home) and Austin Guitarist John Garr (Hometown Nothing and Ride Home ) made guest appearances on the CD.
"Hard Luck Symphony" can be sampled or purchased:
