Bio
.. ...... ...... ...... .. ........ .. .. .. .. .. ........................ .. .."2006 L.A. Music Awards Nominee: Johnny Philko".. Best Blues Album 2006 "Songs to Swear By".. Best Male Singer / Songwriter "Ruby Ridge".... .. .. Down home rock and roll, and a sound and lyric that will remind you of a different time. Frankly this foursome hands us a well thought out political album in an attempt to express their feelings, and the feelings of many others who are not for the war, or Bush, for that matter. .. You can go to the bands website and find descriptions of each song, where they come from and much more researched links that will educate any new fan about the political views and feelings behind this band. I listen to the music and lyrics and I found a new appreciation. Even though some will listen to this and by the style be reminded of the war protest songs of the Vietnam era, but this time we have plenty of our own issues to protest against, and Johnny Philko has brought those issues out in song. .. The members of this band, obviously close friends, are driving for the same goal. If you are unsure what that is, visit their website and find out. While you are at it, buy the CD at one of the many locations available and really experience the old-time rock and roll with a deliberate edge and desire to do what they are doing. Oh, and while you are visiting their site, check out their music videos. You thought just hearing the music makes an impact? Wait till you see this stuff! .. .. ..Support Indie Music! Order a CD today!.. Cds available at ..http://www.CDbaby.com!........ ..Mp3s available on ..http://www.Itunes.com!........ ....Watch Waco on YouTube!.......... .. .... ........ .. .. .. .. .. ........................ .. In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act. ~George Orwell~ .. .. "Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules... You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do." ..~Steve Jobs~.. ..Johnny Philko..............Join us on FaceBook too.... .. -
