Hey there! Thanks for stoppin' by.... The tunes you hear are from the newest recording by Kasey Rausch & Friends, titled "Live How you Love." We play Americana type tunes from Kansas City to wherever we roam... "Live How You Love" is available for purchase online through www.villagerecords.com . Our first full length recording, "Born Near the Waters," is available through i-tunes. Sign up for the monthly mailing list at www.kaseyrausch.com.
Most of the folks in the Kasey Rausch & Friends project also have other projects. Check 'em out in the "top friends" section...
Besides the Rausch & Friends crew, Kasey is involved with 3 other musical projects at the moment...
BUTTERMILK BOYS are a rustic, psychedelic folk thing. I play upright bass, sing harmonies, and I’m workin’ on a bit of fiddlin’. Scott Stanton writes the tunes, sings & plays acoustic guitar. My sweet fella Travis Huffhines is on the electric tripped out mandolin, and Brandon Hallacy, a/k/a “The Kid†on psycho-acoustic guitar. We also play our own interpretations of tunes by The Dead, Dylan, John Prine & others . . . We’ll be recording soon.
RIVERCITY REVELATORS is one of the funnest things I’ve been a part of, partly ‘cause I get to cut loose -- it’s a rockin’ punk-a-billy thing. I sing harmonies, play banjo, a bit of fiddle and upright bass, and shake a mean tambourine. Desmond Poirier is the guitarist, songwriter, singer & mastermind behind the project. Nick Baker is on drums, and Bryce Lawrence on bass. We’re loud and in your face. Our first record, “Red Flag†was released in 2006 and recording has started on the second album, “Thunder on the River†at Layer Logic in KCMO.
THE BOTTOM DOLLAR BAND is my family's band, and I join 'em every chance I get! Terry Rausch & Larry Ford have dubbed themselves “unrelated uncle-in-laws†since they are both my uncles on different sides of my family. BEAUTIFUL! The rest of the band consists of long time friends of the family who I consider to be my “unrelated uncles!†These are the guys i learned to pick with when I was a wee little squirt. It's old school country and honky tonk! My roots! I love it!
