  • High Noon Country Festi…

    Special Guests beim 3. High Noon Country Festival
    The Folsom Prisoners

    Schon seit Ende vergangenen Jahres steht das Line Up des 3. High Noon Country Festivals am Kulturbahnhof B3 im nordrhein/westfälischen Borgholzhausen fest. Jetzt wurde jedoch eine Ergänzung des Programms bekanntgegeben. Das Bielefelder Rockabilly Trio
    "The Folsom Prisoners"
     wird Samstag gegen 14:00 Uhr einen halbstündigen Auftritt auf dem Festival geben und damit für ihren Auftritt auf der 4. Ausgabe des Festivals am 20. und 21. August 2011 werben. Die Folsom Prisoners setzen sich zusammen aus: Suspicious Sam, Vocals und Bass - Big "O" Fulton, Guitar und Vocals - Shotgun Ray, Drums und Vocals. Trotz der Gefahr, die von diesen drei "Schwerverbrechern" ausgehen könnte, hat die Festival Leitung darauf verzichtet, einen Stahlkäfig auf der Bühne aufzubauen und vertraut lieber auf eine Handvoll eingeflogener US Marshalls, die sich unter das Publikum mischen und dafür sorgen, dass nichts ausser heisser Musik die Bühne verlässt.

Bio

Southeast of the skyscrapers and neon lights of Los Angeles is where the band West of Texas meet to write their songs. These boys take their influences from the heroes of Classic & Outlaw Country. It’s a sound that captures the Bakersfield Twang, Texas Shuffles, Western Swing, Truck Drivin’ radio shows and Nashville tunes that came crackling over the AM band over 30 years ago.

The band was formed in 2003 by Jerry Zinn. As the song writer, he knew early on that he needed to and would eventually play country music. The problem was finding musicians that could breathe new life into the sound of traditional country. After spending a few years living in Northern California, he stumbled across the local scene, and it became apparent that he wasn’t alone. Inspired by the tight-knit group of musicians, he returned to Southern California, with notebooks full of songs written over the years. He was determined to honor the legends while creating his own version of the classics.

Some have said West of Texas bring back the sound of the legendary Palomino Club, with their timeless sound and hard hitting Honky Tonk. Others have said the only thing missing from the bands live shows is chicken wire in front of the stage and saw dust on the floor. A few notes into the bands energetic live show and you’ll be toe tapping, two stepping or swinging along. So belly-up to the bar and listen to their songs of heartaches, hangovers, and honky tonks.
