ONLINE INTERVIEW :
Maximum Threshold Radio - "All I can say about Black Water is that when I came across this band they really stuck out from all the others I have been listening to and they have really grown on me. I find myself humming along to their tunes. Something I haven't done in years. Tracy Bailey will be on the show and look forward to hearing how this bad ass band was put together."
Dom and Dan from Maximum Threshold Radio interviewed Tracy about the BLACK WATER project. The show can be downloaded from the past or archived shows. Tracy talks about the project and whats in store for the future of the band. Other guest included Dave Ellefson of F5, Megadeth, Soulfly, Temple of Brutality.
ARTICLES FROM AROUND THE WORLD :

BEATZONE International Music Magazine says
"New Super Group Rising.. They live in America and their music is hard and hot and their name conjurers all kinds of images. They are three men, namely G (vocals), Tracy Bailey (guitar, bass and vocals) and Mike Bailey (drums, mixing and production). Look out ZZ Top, Black Water are in hot pursuit and their sound is powerful and fresh.
If you listen to Internet Radio, you will have heard them on a number of Stations world wide. One track from their EP is also going to be featured on a new Compilation in the pipeline too.
We highly recommend you do check them out at MySpace.. the music is amazing, fresh and original".
