Mexican Gunfight

Bio:

Mexican Gunfight is 4/5 of The Renegade Saints and 100% dedicated to having fun playing originals and covers ranging from rock to island to country. We pay homage to acts as diverse as Neil Young, Hothouse Flowers, Willie Nelson, Santana, Glen Campbell and Little Feat while offering just as much stylistic variety in our originals. We borrow songs from the other original acts we’ve been in including the Renegade Saints, Kerosene Dream, The Strangers, and Nine Days Wonder. The spirit behind Mexican Gunfight is to consider all styles as fair game and have a blast jamming on them. .. ..

“Northern Rock,” a blend of Classic Southern jam and Heartland songcraft and ...charity towards all, and malice towards none--musically speaking.
