  • Bio

    Lost Country® is a Texas group that began recording in 1998. A thoroughly modern band that finds sources of inspiration in earlier forms of American music: Honky-tonk, R&B, prewar and postwar western swing with a touch of blues, folk, boogie-woogie, country rock, and a generous helping of rockin' hillbilly bop—music that in recent years has been referred to as Americana music or roots music. Others call it industrial resistance music or "no alternative." The songs deal with changes in the world and in the way people live—the rapid disappearance of the world as we knew it. In short, Lost Country® is an American band... .. The group started in Fort Worth, Texas when Jim Colegrove, a founding member of the Juke Jumpers, a well-known Texas jump blues and rockabilly band, and David McMillan began recording classic country songs. Susan Colegrove joined them to add vocals to some of the tracks, and Jim asked his friend Jeff Gutcheon to play piano. Jeff and Jim had been in bands together in the 1970s Great Speckled Bird (featured in the 2004 film Festival Express) and Hungry Chuck. Jim, David, Jeff, and Susan decided to continue working and record some original songs, and in 2000 finished enough tracks for a CD. They called the new group Lost Country®... .. Their first release for Cool Groove Records was the CD titled ..Broken People.. and released in April 2001. Later that year the group completed its second CD, ..Down On The Borderline.., which was released in June 2002. John Allen, Susan's brother, recorded with the group adding bass, guitar, vocals and harmonica. Drummer Steve Springer signed on to complete the six-piece band. Late in 2004, John Allen left the group to pursue other musical horizons. Rob Caslin, a fine singer/songwriter was added to the band as bass player early in 2005... .. Lost Country® performs an eclectic blend of American styles in their live performances to create a unique musical experience that appeals to a wide audience. Their third CD, titled ..Turn Your Radio Around.., was released at the Panther City Stomp in November 2003. The group's fourth CD, titled ..Long Gone Thrill.., was released nationally November 15, 2005. Their fifth CD, titled ..Scattered.., was released in July 2007. This record reached the top twenty on the Roots Music Report Pop Country Chart and reached the number 6 position on XM Radio's XCountry Chart. It also checked in on XCountry's Top Fifty of the Year 2008 at number 40... .. Jeff Gutcheon retired from the group in 2007. Craig Simecheck has picked up the keyboard duties for the group in 2008. Lost Country has a new CD titled ..When We Danced.. that was released on Cool Groove Records, April 7, 2009. These days Lost Country is experimenting with their music, looking at new areas and personnel for a change in direction. Who knows how much deeper the music can get lost?

  • Influences

    ...... We like the way these songs sound brand new but also somehow so comfortably familiar, informed as they are by classic folk-rock and country blues roots. Every now and then we yield to the urge to backtrack and replay some of the titles that begin to speak to us for one or more reasons......... .. ..Lone Star Webstation....
