What the local newspaper says...
"...sounds like a buzz saw nasally cutting through burly logs made of western legends. The quartet of twanking countrified rednecks delivers a covered wagon full of originals that so perfectly fit the AM radio western music idiom you'd swear you've heard them before." Glen Starkey (San Luis Obispo New Times)
What we wrote for our promo sheet...
Red Eye Junction drifts along the path of traditional Country and Western music and takes it a step further. Like their heroes Waylon Jennings, Hank Williams, and Johnny Cash, REJ present a classic yet surprisingly fresh take on hard hittin’ American country music. REJ hits the stage with the swagger of the great outlaw country artist and the professionalism of their contemporary counter parts. Their original numbers sound like they would fit right in on your favorite Country Gold radio stations play list. REJ has respect for the guys who wrote the book and broke the mold of the watered down Nashville style. Make it a point to get on board next time they hit your town. Be sure to bring plenty a fightin’ words, whiskey money, and your cheatin’ heart…

Red-Eyed Junction
author: Mark J GodfreyDoc actually can out-nasal Dwight Yoachum and that can wear on you but the songs are tradional country and musically sound. It could be mixed a bit better as the instruments drowned out the singer on occasion but the more I listen to this album the better I like it. I had the pleasure of seeing the group open for Robert Earl Keen Sunday and they sounded very good live. Listen too it, put it away a week and listen to it again.
Hell Yeah!
author: nemski.comIt sounds like a loose case of empties bouncing around in the rusted-out bed of a Ford F150 that hauling ass down the interstate.

Great tunes for drowning your sorrows
author: Chad HoffmanI saw Red Eye Junction at a show in SLO town. Great tunes. I burned a copy for my step dad (he's an old cowboy) and he said it "beat the hell out of today's "mama's boy" music that they try to pass off as country today". Check 'em out if you get the chance. Real music for real people
Get down!
author: Grinder 45I'm not sure how to describe this stuff. Good country with interesting lyrical content and sharp musicianship.
