Band Members:
Cass Hunter - vox/mandolin.
On the album, Billy Hillman and I had help from all of the following wonderful musicians: Scott Nutter - upright bass, Lee Garner - harmonies/accordion/harmonica/keys/etc., Lee Mounger - fiddle, Claude Wooley - electric bass, Mike Atkinson - B3, Dulio Tani - clarinet, Geronimo Calderon - drums, Harlan Kubos - upright bass, Charlie Harrison - electric bass, Kevin Chubirka - drums. I sure hope I didn't forget anyone.
Influences: Too many to list! As far as songwriting, I have so many heroes. The top four in no particular order are Mickey Newbury, Larry Jon Wilson, Dolly Parton, and Willie Nelson. As for vocalists, I love the female singers that sing with their soul. (e.g., Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Janis Joplin, Emmylou Harris, Martina McBride, Tricia Yearwood) Many of them you only hear if you own the albums these days!
