   About the bo-stevens


OUR NEW CD, A LITTLE MORE ROAD, IS now available at Winston-Salem Border's, Ed McKays and Record Exchange. ALSO AVAILABLE online at iTunes, CDBABY.com and DIGSTATION.com

Who are the bo-stevens?

The roots of this roots band go deep. Richard Boyd came to love the Tele twang and pedal steel swells of Honky Tonk at his father’s knee. Who, in the 50's, recorded two country songs a few doors down from the art studio where the bo-stevens got their start. Shortly after that first gig Scott Brandenburg and Greg Bell joined Richard, Jeff Shu and Mark Peurifoy to become the bo-stevens.

In 2004, replacing Scott, Andy Mabe brought his standup bass talents to the ensemble and the group released Can’ts Never Could, a mix of original songs and old-school covers, which was lauded in the local press for its unvarnished honesty and retro leanings.

July 2006 marked the debut of Billie Feather on bass and on September 8, 2007 the band celebrated the release of A Little More Road, another journey through Richard and company’s old-school sound. Mark left the band shortly after the cd release to spend more time with his growing family and the Rev. Doug Hawkins joined in 2008 to round out the motley cast.

KEEP IT COUNTRY.

I’ve been a music journalist for more than 10 years. Over the years, many artists and managers have asked me what the best way to break into the European music market is.

Here are some things you can do:



Publish artist press releases, news, and tour dates to the CountryHome Forum on MySpace, http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazine , CountryHome Forum is part of CountryHome, http://www.CountryHome.de , Germany's Premier Country Music Online Magazine. Everything you publish to the CountryHome Forum will be published in my weekly Newsletter which has over 80,000 readers.



Publish artist interviews in English to http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazineInterviewsEnglish , interviews in French to http://groups.myspace.com/InterviewsAvecCountryMusicStars and interviews in German to http://groups.myspace.com/CountryMusikInterviews . All these groups on MySpace are part of CountryHome, http://www.CountryHome.de , Germany's Premier Country Music Online Magazine.



Send me CDs and DVDs for review and set up an artist interview with me. All reviews and interviews will be submitted to the magazines I'm writing for. More information for which magazines I'm writing can be found at http://www.MySpace.com/ChristianLamitschka



Upload artist videos to http://www.MyVideo.de and http://www.ClipFish.de . Both websites are like http://www.YouTube.com and uploading videos is free. The websites are completely in German. If you don’t speak German and need assistance, I will help you open an account and upload a video for 25 Euro. Each additional video upload for the same artist name and at the same video website is 10 Euro.



If you have more questions about the European music market or about any of the information I send to you today, please contact me at Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de too.
