Zu meinem Profil hinzufÃ¼gen | Mehr Videos
Cpt.Stubing & the Loveboats plays slower Country-Songwriting in the tradition of Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, as well as Randy Newman, Warren Zevon and Lyle Lovett. After all, Cpt.Stubing is a German band that performs music from elsewhere.
They sing about a man who repairs the roof before leaving his family. About a cowboy who wants to shoot his girlfriends new lover and gets his face busted instead. About a mid-western middle-class family man who misses his early love Carmelita. She was shot by her jealous brother because of the short-lived intercultural love affair. And about a young woman who shot the sheriff and ran over the deputy. And so on.
The band was formed in 1995. It started of as a kind of Big Band with 8 musicians and opened for very different bands like Freakwater and the Supersuckers. After a short break of five Years, Cpt.Stubing & the Loveboats re-formed as a duo with several guests. 2005 we opened for Terry Lee Hale and Clem Snide. Each show is different.
