SPIRIT OF THE OUTLAWS: A Nashville Show, A National Tour, An Online Magazine...A Way of Life...
"The Spirit of the Outlaws is not only music, it is a way of life. It is the spirit of being a pioneer and adventurer and believing in a world of diversity. It is about growth, individuality and expansion instead of conformity." Brigitte London
.
Spirit of the Outlaws Shows began in Nashville in Feb. 2007 and ran for one year. With former members of the Waylon Jennings, Porter Wagoner and Merle Haggard bands and fronted by songstress Brigitte London, this Outlaw Supergroup of legendary Nashville musicians were joined by some of the best Artists of today ---together creating what is perhaps the most dynamic and entertaining shows in years. Once a month, artists from across the country came to the heart of music city to perform the music that they cherished along with their own originals, building a movement that reached beyond the performances. Several of these artists recorded on the Spirit of the Outlaws Compilation CD that will be released this year.
There is a new day dawning. A light of truth, a committment to music that is so powerful, those that don't understand it have to leave it's presence. The sound of unapologetic and unleashed soul....It is the Spirit of the Outlaws.
There is power in being real, being true...It takes fearlessless. You can't market fearlessness. And those that approach their music with fearlessless, passion and a desire so intense it feels like a train is passing through you when you hear them, carry that power.
Those that have it, honor and respect the integrity that came before them. Men and women who refused to let their music be boxed in by anyone, who produced their own records, touched on taboo subjects, spoke of life in the truth of pain, love, sexuality, and pure joy. And honed their craft until they were legends: Waylon, Willie, Cash, Hanks, Kristofferson, Shaver, Steve Earle, Jessi Colter, Loretta Lynn, Haggard, Jones--they were all the birth of this musical spirit in country music and in rock and roll.
SPIRIT of the OUTLAWS brings this to light with new Artists of TODAY who follow their own musical path, refusing to compromise. We bring the spirit of the past together with the present in one hell of a combination.
We don't place limits on genre, as this extends beyond any boundaries of labels of country, rock, folk. It's just good music, pure and simple.
Who better to bring the magic of the music than an
A-list back up band that includes many original members of Waylon Jennings' band including RICHIE ALBRIGHT, FRED NEWELL, JERRY BRIDGES and Bakersfield guitar guru EUGENE MOLES.
Brigitte London moved to Nashville from Austin, and teamed up with these legendary musicians to create something new, unique and ALL ABOUT THE MUSIC and Spirit of the Outlaws was born. Perpetually and infectiously vivacious, London is a modern day maverick committed to supporting authentic, heart and soul driven independent artists and their music, a true testament in and of itself to the original roots of the outlaw movement.
In partnership with Desert Star Media, the show has expanded into an Online Magazine that features extensive Features, Reviews, International Showguide, a Video Lounge, and more.
Spirit of the Outlaws has become a family of artists and music lovers all across the country and beyond. It breeds community instead of competition, soulfulness instead of "marketability". RAW and REAL.
