If there's one thing you can say about Adam Lee & the Dead Horse Sound Company, they get around. Since the April release of their debut album, 'Ghostly Fires,' these two ramblers have played most of the eastern US. Shows in nearly 20 states -- many, more than once. They've written and recorded a full length record entirely on their own, and show no signs of slowing down. All this from a band that's less than two years old. Adam Lee and Johnny Kay (the Dead Horse Sound Company) miss good old fashioned music. With a focus on solid songwriting, these Kansas City boys bring an indie sensibility to classic American styles. Assorted instrumentation and engaging arrangements set whiskey-fueled rockers alongside smoky southern ballads -- for fans of Willie and Wilco alike. With an uncompromising DIY attitude, Adam Lee & the Dead Horse Sound Company are headed for your town. So get your boots and grab a beer -- they'll see you on the road!
