NEWS:
We recently started working with Steve English - Formerly of mid 70's self proclaimed "Sub-Legendary Country Rock" band Loose Boots and well known by staples of the late 70s and 80s "Tucson Scene" as a recording engineer/producer, killer Pedal Steel player and all around "cool m'fkr" (Gene Ruley). The plan is to have Steve with us down in Tombstone adding his talents to our Outlaw Music Conert set on April 12th. So far it's sounding pretty damn good and we're honored and excited to have him aboard.
