We don't sell CD's. We don't fly these bands to L.A. to play for our executives. We don't have executives. We don't make money off of these bands. We don't hold rights to any of their songs. We don't exploit these bands. We promote them where we can. We blog about them when necessary. Mainly, we just think you should listen to them, because we think they're pretty darn good.

Pretty much anyone that doesn't sing about highways and being a desperado and somehow convince everyone that they're wise beyond their years.
Sleepy Horses Featured on Athfest 2007 compilation
Influences: Space Eleven Ten in its heyday. KDAV. The original Tokyo Joe's (before the city shut it down). KDAN. People who write great 2 minute songs, mainly those written about 45-50 years ago. That time Cigar Store Indians came to Lubbock eons ago and no one cared. Einstein's. Ichabod's. Tater Reds and the Wonderful Ibex Fabrication. Dirk Fowler. Jack Davis Western Wear. BC Gilbert. The Brownfield Highway. Eddie Beethoven. Jessie Jane's. The Winchester Twin theater. Spilling Poetry. The old Ralph's Records building on University. Pistol Pete's Pizza. When 82nd St. was "outside of town." J & B Coffee. The Wheeler Brothers & Ulterior Motifs. The time when Lubbock had the All Beatles radio station for however long that lasted. Mariachi Amistad at summer showcase. and the days when people would put on festivals that weren't headlined by a Texas country band.
