New Deal (Bloodshot). Review by Rob Walsh.
WACO BROTHERS NEW DEAL Bloodshot For nearly a decade the spirits of Johnny Cash and Hank Williams have been riding aboard the runaway Waco express. Resurrecting all that was good about classic country and recasting it in an idiom of their, the Waco Brothers corroborate that a rich tradition has not ...

Look! Up in Chicago! Is it a Waco, a Mekon or a Pine Valley Cosmonaut? Rob Walsh straightens it all out with Jon Langford.
... of America’s Midwest. While still playing an occasional show with The Mekons, Jon has a panoply of other projects, including the country-inflected Waco Brothers. They have just released New Deal (the band’s sixth album) on Bloodshot Records. It is one of most rockin' country albums that I have heard ...

dead flowers, bottles, bluegrass and bones (Fat Wreck Chords). Review by Rob Walsh.
... of the Clash, the anthems of Sham 69, the raw, guitar-driven energy of (very) early Bad Religion and sporadic country inflection that hints at the Waco Brothers. Yet, by no means is this band derivative. In fact, this is one of the most refreshing "punk" (dare I use that word -- what does it even denote ...

October 1998 :: Ink Spots :: Atlantis '98 (James Mann)
... . But of the stuff I saw, 99.9% of it was great. Starting off on Thursday night at 8:00, about 25 people showed up for Los Lonely Boys, a trio of brothers from Texas who sounded like Stevie Ray Vaughn sitting in with a poppy Los Lobos. The oldest (at 20!), the guitar playing lead singer, has that smoldering ...

July 1999 :: Ink Spots :: Alejandro Escovedo (James Mann)
... Believers found themselves imploding. Alejandro started out again. Five albums later, he's found a home on Chicago's Bloodshot Records, haven to the Waco Brothers and Neko Case. His first release for them, the live More Miles Than Money , captured his unique blend of scalding rock (covers of Iggy Pop ...

November 1998 :: Columns :: In Perspective|The Pine Valley Cosmonauts (James Mann)
... insurgent country artist Jon Langford, this must have sounded familiar. As a founding member of the Mekons, and now, additionally, the leader of the Waco Brothers, I'm sure Langford has faced the blank stares and cool indifference of those who couldn't understand his passion. It's in this spirit, I ...

... Woman," a record she found in a yard sale many moons ago. Last heard on Bloodshot's Tribute to Bob Wills and providing backing vocals on the new Waco Brothers, Wacoworld , Kelly and guitarist Andy Hopkins, drummer Jason Benson, and John Forbes (The Mellowcremes) stomp and romp through the song like ...

Austin, Texas is home to this eclectic Americana outfit who brings together r...
... pretty, waltz-like ballads. Album closer "High Highs and Low Lows" is a terrific, unexpected, loping rocker that wouldn't sound out of place on a Waco Brothers or Alejandro Escovedo record. Occasionally, the band works a sort of Lynyrd-Skynyrd-by-way-of-the-Bottle-Rockets territory, as on the opening ...

September1998 :: Ink Spots :: Kelly Hogan (James Mann)
... sunny south for the frozen tundra of Chicago. She moved to take a job as publicist for Bloodshot Records, the home of people like Neko Case and the Waco Brothers, leaders of the "insurgent" country scene. It wasn't that she had worn out her welcome in Atlanta, it was more, as she puts it, "ants in the ...

Frank Black and the Catholics, with The Bennies, David Lovering, and The Reid Paley Trio at Toad's Place in New Haven, CT on November 10, 2002. Concert review by Rob Walsh. Photos by Julie Flynn.
... while. Paley's gritty vocals have an eerie Tom Waits feel, while his energy and attitude was reminiscent of Jon Langford's performances with The Waco Brothers (in fact, he bears a slight physical resemblance to Langford). A wonderful storyteller, Reid wove tales of love and alcohol, and a love for alcohol ...
