I really enjoyed Handsome and the Humbles, The Westies, and Josiah and the Bonnevilles. The Westies and Handsome and the Humbles have a similar guitar lick at the beginning of the featured songs. 🙂
My god, I loved the J Burn song, “Moonshine.” Also loved Handsome and the Humbles. Great story song.
Love the Handsome and the Humbles song! Great lyrics. I love songs that tell stories.
Great songs! Liked Handsome and the Humbles as well as Chief Ghoul and Frances Luke Accord. Thanks for sharing!
Some good stuff here! Always nice to listen to some new music. I’m a huge fan of Handsome and the Humbles and “The Ballad of Rose Thompson” is probably one of my favorites tunes from their new CD, Have Mercy. Have to say, however, that it’s excellent from beginning to end. Can’t recommend it enough!
I love Handsome and the Humbles song, “The Ballad of Rose Thompson.” I also enjoyed Josiah & The Bonnevilles, “Cold Blood.” Both bands definitely cut the mustard!
Handsome and the Humbles rock!
