"Holy &%$ this band is awesome! As country as country can get.
Some of the best songwriting and dance floor shuffling tunes we have heard here at RMR in 2006.
THE WAY-GONERS have captured the essence of country music whilst adding their own up to date flavor to each track on this CD. Their music is modern but has that true country honky tonk sound that originally attracted millions of fans from around the globe to the country music scene. “Country Radio if you are not spinning this album, you’re not countryâ€
-Robert Bartosh (ROOTS MUSIC REPORT)
KICKIN’ UP DUST FOR YOUR IPOD
