Scott H. Biram * The Wayward Sons * DeadEnd Cowboys
Scott H. Biram - (Austin, TX) Rock 'n' Roll ain't pretty and neither is Scott H. Biram. The self proclaimed 'Dirty Old One Man Band' successfully, and sometimes violently, lashes together blues, hillbilly and country precariously to raucous punk and godless metal. ??Biram ain't no dour ass singer/songwriter either, sweetly strumming songs about girls with big eyes and dusty highways. HELL NO!!! His singing, yodeling, growling, leering and brash preachin' and hollerin' is accompanied by sloppy riffs and licks from his 1959 Gibson guitar and pounding backbeat brought forth by his amplified left foot. The remainder of this one-man band consists of an unwieldy combination of beat-up amplifiers and old microphones strung together by a tangled mess of guitar cables.??Years of non-stop touring have honed his assault to a fine edge; his wide-eyed throw downs in the First Church of Ultimate Fanaticism routinely lead giddy followers to a fiery baptism.??Scott H. Biram wont die. On May 11th, 2003, one month after being hit head-on by an 18-wheeler at 75 MPH, he took the stage at The Continental Club in Austin, TX in a wheel chair - I.V. still dangling from his arm. With 2 broken legs, a broken foot, a broken arm and 1 foot less of his lower intestine, Biram unleashed his trademark musical wrath.??When Scott H. Biram took the stage at his 2004 SXSW festival showcase right after Kris Kristofferson he was quoted as growling "They said that was a hard act to follow....I'm a hard act to follow motherfuckers!!" The stunned crowd looked on.?
The Wayward Sons - (Channelview/Houston, TX) Americana Texas FolkRock from the Bayou City featuring hard driving sounds of life and tender ballads of the head and heart. Songs of love that reach out for the souls that bring us comfort, others that are foot stompin' front porch party tunes, and some delve into the darkest innermost parts of the human condition. Take a ride with back road dwellers who lead a simpler life... past the farms who are struggling to make a decent living in a not so decent modern world... catch up with the outlaws who reach the point of no return, and the prisons they find themselves in. Raw and real tales from the places your either don't go, or choose not to notice. The homeless beggar, the beat up prostitute, the guys who just can't seem to pull themselves out of the gutter... Tales of lost loves... murderers... and the ghosts they leave behind. Come and take a peek into the void... after all, we all get a bit Wayward at times.
DeadEnd Cowboys (Houston, TX) - Picture Spaghetti Western Porn Soundtrack for Bull Riding While Under the Influence Of Jim Beam.
