BJ BLUE and the Cadillac Cowboys

About Me

Description: George Strait meets Asleep At The Wheel on SteroidsNow Available at www.cdbaby.com/cd/bbatcc1BJ Blue and the Cadillac Cowboys, the latest rage in the state of TEXAS, bring an excitement to Country Music we haven't seen in quite a while. A unique combination of "over the top" songs, great musicianship and danceable Country Music. BJ and the Boys stand out against today's so-called country acts which are singing basically rap styled lyrics over a musical background which smacks of rap with fiddle and steel masking the void of song and substance.BJ Blue and the Cadillac Cowboys are an "ALL TEXAS" band. BJ (Billy Joe) hails originally from Abilene. The other members of the group are from Tuscola, Sweetwater, Aspermont, Muleshoe and Cross Plains. They met by chance at the Cowboy's Christmas Ball held yearly at the Stamford Roundup Hall where many of the greats of Country Music have performed. People like Bob Wills, Ernest Tubb, Hank Thompson, Ray Price, Johnny Bush, etc. All the great entertainers that had great live bands used to play the Stamford Roundup Hall regularly. People could (and loved to) dance to their music. This is the tradition that BJ Blue and the Cadillac Cowboys are pursuing. A great band with great songs people can dance to. Check out their new CD "HIP SHAKIN' MAN" and you'll see what we're talkin' 'bout. REAL SONGS, REAL COUNTRY MUSIC, REAL DANCEABLE. There's something here for everyone and all of it presented in a RADIO-FRIENDLY format. Long live tradition ... and long live BJ Blue and the Cadillac Cowboys ... "In touch" with the new, and yet not "out of touch" with tradition ... ENJOY!If you want to get a feel for the complete CD go to www.cdbaby.com and "search" for BJ Blue and the Cadillac Cowboys.
