Well hello there. I seen you looking at this web page thing. So you like Country Music? Me too. I like it a lot. I see that you are enjoying an adult beverage. Do you mind if I join you? Cheers!I guess you already know that Slim White and The Averys are releasing their record on Saturday. Appropriately, we're having one the all-time great Ranch Party Round Ups ever this weekend, with a slate of acts that will have you hollerin' and hoistin' a glass. We've invited back our long-time Round Up family members The Song Birds! These fine folks always bring a great show, with Jessi and Savannah providing sweet harmonies and solid rhythm, Brian and John dusting it all with their inventive melodic workouts, and the whole band bringing you a mix of classic favorites and their own great original songs. This band will deliver the goods!
We are also fortunate to have The Wayfarers on the bill this Saturday. This band is a stealth act that has rocketed out of Zanesville lately, with the genuine article: real mountain music and Appalacian sounds, with old-time rural radio shows setting the example. This is a smart, talented bunch of pickers. Catch their show this Round Up and you can one day tell folks you saw 'em way back when.....
After The Averys knock off around 10 PM, you youngsters will want to stick around for The Smoking Guns. This is when your Saturday night gets into gear! Matt Monta and his band (Billy Corey, Rob Thomas, Brady Oxender) will grind out some uptempo rockabilly, stomp out some swampy blues, and evoke the combined aroma of Tom Waits, Bruce Springsteen and Woody Guthrie all within the same song.

And Now A Word About
"Greetings From Hangover Town"
This record was recorded last Spring at Steezo Sound in Gahanna, OH. We met Eric Jones when he ran the board at what is now Woodlands. He still does a bangup job over there. Eric engineered the sessions and helped produce with his usual no-nonsense professional style. He recorded the band as it actually sounds.
The songs on this record had all had a good live workout over many shows before they were recorded. The entire band laid down live tracks for every song, and then took second chance passes for some guitar solos and vocals where the live performance or signal was lacking. Short of being 100% live, this is as honest a performance as you will find.
The Averys would like to thank all of you for supporting our music over the past few years, and for your support of live, local, independant Traditional Country Music. This town has a truly vibrant, high-quality, pro-level Traditional Country Music community, and y'all are the ones that make it possible.
Yer Pards-
