Featuring a heavy dose of drinking songs and breakup ballads, The Painkillers live up to their name. A band that plays honky-tonk, Americana, cow punk, and good old country rock, they round it out with harmonicas and slide guitar. Hailing from Kansas, singer/songwriter Jack Armstrong, better known for his daytime gig on Talk 650/ KSTE-AM's Armstrong & Getty Show, spins tales about love gone wrong, drunken debauchery, and losing everything. The Painkillers are new to the scene, but were featured at the 2007 Best of Sacramento and are frequently played on Nevada City’s KVMR “Ragged but Right†show.
