OYB NOW A RECORD LABEL!
Yes, indeed, your trusty source for candid info on outdoor sports and lots of other DIY things has
now launched a record label.
We offer 3 amazing artists for your listening pleasure!
Just like I give you reading you can't find anywhere else, I've come across simply amazing music
that tells it like it is and isn't redundant to anything else you're listening to. I finally decided
to do something about these artists whose work was not available any other way. --I signed them!
You can hear big free samples and download songs for a buck apiece or just click-buy the CDs
for cheap.
3 diverse artists...one common spirit of GENIUS!
* "Folk & Rocking Country" artist Richard Dobson, a godfather of the Austin sound, has a greatest
hits record, "BackTracks," that isn't hardly available. He gives a candid life to country like the
best of them do. He's got the best roughneck oil-worker song around---and he's definitely been
there, done that.
*Em McElderry gives us a 12-string dobro blend of Guthrie, Hank and Kerouac blues. He pushes the
stob of the blues/political/literary/folk song like it's been needing pushing for a LONG time.
(Check out his "Moby [censored]"!)
*Bart Casad & U.K.E. offers a quirky ukele ensemble of simply wonderful instrumentation and socially
savvy songwriting with tunes you won't forget.
It's all at my homepage, but outyourbackdoor.comOYBmusic.htmlOpen ↗ will take you right there.
OYB has long had a Musicshop showcasing our favorite tunes in various categories that you can buy
from existing labels. But I've added a special listing there, too, that I want to make sure everyone
knows about. Billy Bragg & Wilco did a record of unknown Woody Guthrie songs, "Mermaid Avenue." It's
a wonderful thing! There are free samples at my link to check it out, of course.
