notes

"As a songwriter I like to bare my soul and put all of my emotions and feelings to music", as front man and founder of the Slant 6 Cowboys, Don Whitcher has done just that.
On the debut release for New England based Slant 6 Cowboys, Whitcher has written a collection of songs that carry you the range of human emotion. " Well what can I say? Broken hearts, jail time, a lot of whiskey, women, fighting and violence. I've seen good times and bad, done a lot of traveling. I've played with a lot of great musicians and been influenced by Johnny Cash, Hank and a whole lot more."

In the style of the Old West, the Slant 6 Cowboys break down the door with guns blazing. A take no prisoners attitude and the talent to back it up. The opening track 'Badlands' features the guitar slinging style of Peter James Coonradt....the guys at DiscMakers called him "Jeff Beck goes Country!!" His sensibility for the traditions of Americana Roots music is met with a modern style and blistering presentation. Add the guitar wizardry and gritty vocals of Don Whitcher and this band brings a fresh new oft times angry spirit to Americana music.

It's atalented group of musicians who have honed their craft to a sharp edge without losing sight of the roots of their influence. The songs speak of wide open spaces, love gone bad, whiskey and bad women and good love too....songs about life, the hard way.

    Huge breakthough! I've known Don Whitcher for year's and have listened to his music, he's my brother in law. Well every Fri. night a large number of people come to our home to play darts and we snuck Donnie's CD into the player. Everyone liked it, rockers and country music lovers too. Now they ask for us to play it and want us to burn copies, but sorry, go buy one of your own and help support this new great innovative band. Waited for years for it to come out, can't wait for the next! Try it, you'll love it! You think I'm partial, but I know good tunes when I hear it!

  • Talented new alt-country with a great new sound

    I gotta say, I was blown away by this album. I consider myself to be a pretty avid fan of country music. Lately though, all the new country has been pretty lackluster. I started searchin around the net and when I found these guys I instantly bought the cd and I don't regret it at all. If you like alt-country or are just a fan of good music, then do not hesitate in buying this cd for you will not be disappointed. I know I wasn't.
