Well folks, we had a good run and appreciate all the fans and support. We're all still working the music circuits so keep up with our various projects! Kitty has relocated to New England where she still performs, Jay McBones is blazing a trail with his band the Go Devils, Big Hoss has moved on with Diamond Jem and the Ace, and Johnny Degenerate has set sail with the Transylvania Transport Co.
"Hailing from the hills of the Western Carolinas, Kitty King and the Whistlin' Skulls offer up a heapin' helpin' of down home Honky Tonk and Reckless Rock'n Hillbilly! Kitty King and Johnny Degenerate have collaborated on music for sevarl years, recently adding Big Hoss Wheelwright and his Big Ol' Bass to the fold. A twangy guitar and rumblin' upright driven rhythm topped off with vocals from an era of juke-joints and honky tonks will definitely keep the hillbillies hoppin'."
"From the 13-foot-tall Telecaster in the parking lot to the PBR and swing dancing, Cash Bash VI had a little bit of everything. Kitty King and the Whistlin’ Skulls kicked off the weekend with it’s own brand of rockabilly and country. The group did its own take on “House of the Rising Sun” before kicking off a Cash cover of “Folsom Prison” that had the crowd singing along. Actually, the crowd sung along to plenty of songs — covers and originals all night long." - Cash Bash VI Review, Creative Loafing
