Well, it happened like this. Jeffery Wayne Mosley was a bass picker and Robert Jason Vandygriff guitar picker and singer when they met in a place called Fannin County. Much later in life they put together a little outfit called the Von Ehrics. After going through drummers like Jeffery goes through women, they settled on an outlaw named Gabe "Stix" Aguilar. Now these three Texans had been raised on two things: the country music that was fed to them as little Texans (which is kind of a birth-right) and the punk rock and metal bands that they found as they got older. They put the two together and created a country punk sound. Honky-tonk metal, if you will. It’s just straight forward, country-styled songs played fast and loud. After all, they grew up in Texas - and around Dallas in particular. The bands they looked up to were Hagfish and Reverend Horton Heat. Put those with some old school Merle and a little Motorhead and your starting to get the idea. If you're not sick of reading this by now then I guess you're looking for too much information. If this is your favorite band in the whole goddamn world then send 'em an email at thevonehrics@yahoo.com or check out the website at www.thevonehrics.com or catch them on tour the next time they are in your town, but for God sake stop reading the bio page on myspace.com you low rent son of a bitch.
