Most one-man bands are one-trick ponies. One riff, one sound, one gimmick, one bucket, whatever. Not Scott H. Biram. The man can and will throw down some feral, amped-up Delta blues just as easily as a stone cold country weeper that'll get the girls all dewy-eyed with faith and desire, or even a heavy metal field hollerwith the emphasis on holler. He can and will hold an audience rapt when he sings from the bottom of his boots about what it takes to get saved and how he'll end up blowing the deal.
 
Austin TX's self-proclaimed Dirty Old One-Man Band's third album for Bloodshot is profane and tender, alluring and frightening, and while such intensely polarizing forces would tear a lesser man apart, Scott appears to revel in the tug of war. With his '59 Gibson hollow body, mouth harp and electrified stomp board, his muddied water gospel is sly enough to charm the devil, and the hip shake boogie irresistible enough to get the Man upstairs to come down and share a bottle of the brown with him.
 
Performed, recorded and produced by Scott hisself, with the notable exception of the rave up 'I Feel So Good' done with blues punk duo the Black Diamond Heavies, Something's Wrong/Lost Forever is a record rife with testifying and torment. The grungy strut of 'Time Flies' and the Waylon-worthy lament in 'Still Drunk, Still Crazy, Still Blue' shows that real pathos lurks beneath the brim of Scott's trucker cap, while the two-step rant of 'Judgment Day' has him at his wide-eyed best. Check out the way he draws a line in piss and whiskey from the sweaty heaviness of the Delta to dudes throwing devil horns at a metal concert in 'Hard Time,' or the eerie, on-his-knees lament sung with maximum distortion on 'Go Down Ol' Hannah.' Just him and his maker.
 
A compulsive tourer, a Scott H. Biram sermon/concert/throwdown is not hard to find. Take heed, though, one dose and youll want to drink out of the same well that he has. Scott H. Biram is not a one-man band, but Scott H. Biram is a band thats one man.

Tilford Sellers And The Wagon Burners, from Columbus, Indiana play straight-up original Honky Tonk dance tunes and Hillbilly Boogie. They play true country with a little Bakersfield Sound and Western Swing attitude thrown in for good measure. 

Go through Tilford Sellers’ swinging doors and find honky tonk so muddy you’re bound to lose your boots.  They play cheating songs that won’t make you cry, songs of lament waiting for Saturday night and songs that are slightly retro with an occasional hiccup.  Their tunes embody the spirit of dancing, drinking, love lost and love gained.  

Since the release of their first cd in 2011, they have been busy touring from Kansas City to North Carolina and Michigan to Tennessee. Their second cd, “Heartaches, Lying, and Cheating Songs” was released in February 2012 and has received great reviews.
