notes
Grant Langston is back with an all-new 14 song recording - Koreatown.
One of LA's brightest Americana lights, Alabama born and raised Langston uses a witty mix of danceable old-school honky tonk and mournful traditional ballads. While the focus of the new record is squarely on country staples like drinking and lost love...what makes Koreatown unique is Langston's songwriting voice - cynical, sad, self-deprecating and often very funny.
Koreatown looks forward with boot stomping rock-country riffs like "Divorce Number One" and backwards with a supercharged cover of Merle Haggard's, "Working Man Blues." The ballad "Prove Them Wrong" features Langston and his band at their softest and most tender.
Tracks like "Drunken Prince Charming" and "Three Dollar Whore" serve up the smart-ass storyteller that has become his stock and trade.

GO Grant!!!!
author: EvelynThe CD is wonderful! I bought two; one for me, and one for a friend. I've actually had the opportunity to see Grant live twice here in Bakersfield...so much energy and so much talent! All the songs on the CD are fantastic! Thanks again!
Just try to listen to Koreatown without smiling!
author: Edith GibsonThe music and lyrics will bring a big smile to anyone listening. Koreatown connects to the heart and soul of the listener. Lyrics stick in the mind and the music sticks in the body. A great trip to be had by all!
Great Band!
author: Katherine EllisThe lyrics are great, Grant is a fine story teller, excellent album, expertly put together.
Great reminder of a great gig!!!
author: AngieI saw Grant Langston whilst backing up The Lewis 3 in Maidstone January 2006. I thought they were great and that Grant had written some really funny, clever lyrics. I especially like Drunken Prince Charming and Prove Them Wrong is a wonderful love song. Certainly worth the money and its perfect music for driving to!! Would love to see them live again if they ever come back to England. Fabulous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
