"Cop This"

About Me

A crazed mix of musicians, the players coming together from such bands as Johnny Greens Blues Cowboys, The Pat Capocci Trio, Monster A Go Go, The Flatrackers, Melbournes Flyin Saucers and all sorts of incarnations inbetween blending these influences to play some kick ass dirty grungy and gravel filled country. From the engine room powered by that mighty Gretsch sound, the slap of the bass and the blend of 3 talented guitarists mixin it up, be sure to stay tuned as things progress and the band morphs into a freight train of custom built hot rodded country tunes.
