Colter Wall Western Swing & Waltzes And Other Punchy Songs (LP)

(La Honda Records) 10 tracks

From the vast prairies of Saskatchewan, Canada, Colter Wall and his grumpy baritone sing of the Old West of the USA. Praised by Steve Earle and with fans like Jason Mamoa behind him, his "Good Old Times" songs celebrate the myth of the honest, lonely cowboy. His stories of Diamond Joe, the Rocky Mountan Ranger or about the Houlihans At The Holiday Inn are irony-free and so authentic that in films like Peanut Butter Falcon, Hell or High Water or Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, MO they seem like forgotten classics of a long-forgotten Country & Western era.
