February 10, 2015--Whiskey Myers, Headstone

Artist:  Whiskey Myers
Song:  Headstone
Album:  Early Morning Shakes



Yes, I know.  I've already written about Whiskey Myers. Well, I'm doing it again.  You're going to get repeats, especially if the band is one of my favorites, which Whiskey Myers just happens to be.  This song is from their most recent album "Early Morning Shakes".  I can listen to this album from start to finish and not skip a single song.


These guys started out with Cody Cannon (lead vocals/guitar) and Cody Tate (lead guitar) were roommates in Elkhart, Texas.  They began writing songs together and enlisted John Jeffers (guitarist) to help them in their song writing.  The trio originally called themselves Lucky Southern.  When they moved to Tyler, Texas they gained two band memebers:  Jeff Hogg (drums) and Gary Brown (bass).  


They've also got a guy that tours with them as a multi-instrumentalist.  He plays the keyboard, saxophone, and fiddle and I have no idea what his name is.  He isn't listed as a band member, but I swear he was in the "Smoke" video by A Thousand Horses.  I like to refer to him as "Stoner Guy".  If you ever see them live then you will recognize him by that alone.  


Enjoy!
