One of us lives in Memphis and one of us lives in Los Angeles.
We've been around for a couple of years but haven't released anything until last year - our debut CD "Hillbillia". Many of our songs are about our experiences in the American South. We hope you can relate on some level.
If you can't that's fine - we've basically resigned ourselves to being misinterpreted by all and understood by none.
All our CDs are self produced. We don't play live because we're too broke to travel.
We rap, sort of - although we're not what you'd call "hip-hop" - We've been called "alternative rap" but we don't like to pigeonhole ourselves.
If you like what you hear, you can buy our CD or songs (CD quality mp3s) below: (it's only 89 cents per song)
Hey! Billy told me about you guys. Your music is awesome... you should put "Sugar Tree" on here that's my favorite. We're off to England for a couple of months. Come visit us :) Laura
