Wayne Hancock delivers authentic vintage-style Hillbilly with a railroad-rockin' beat on A-Town Blues, an album packed with the raw Country, Western Swing and Rockabilly influences that have made him such a distinctive figure on the roots music scene. Originally recorded in Austin, Texas, it is the kind of record that sounds gloriously out of step with modern production techniques, in all the right ways.
The album features a superb line-up of rockin' roots musicians, including Dave Biller on guitar and Jeremy Wakefield on Steel Guitar. From the title track and Man Of The Road through Miller, Jack & Mad Dog, Track 49, Cow Cow Boogie, Route 23 and Railroad Blues, Hancock keeps the music moving with a combination of twang, swing, blues and genuine locomotive momentum. A-Town Blues was described by PopMatters as "a flat out great album - roots music done right".
14 tracks on red vinyl, and the first time this album has appeared on vinyl, with alternative artwork for this edition. Originally recorded at Cedar Creek Recording in Austin, A-Town Blues is a terrific slice of authentic American roots music for fans of Hillbilly, Western Swing, Rockabilly and hard-driving Country.
