Baby’s First Rodeo

THERE’S JUST SOMETHING A LITTLE DIFFERENT ABOUT THIS LITTLE BAND OF NASHVILLE OUTSIDERS RAMBLING ALL OVER HELL’S HALF ACRE IN A BEAT UP FORD MOTORHOME AFFECTIONATELY DUBBED “THE DELTA DAWN”. MAYBE IT’S BEING FROM THE MIDWEST THAT BRINGS IN A HEAVILY PRINE-INSPIRED FLAVOR TO BIG JAKE’S SONGWRITING, OR MAYBE IT’S THE FACT THAT ALL FOUR BOOTSTRAP BOYS HAVE BEEN PLAYING IN BANDS IN EVERY SINGLE GENRE EXCEPT COUNTRY & WESTERN FOR THE LAST TWO DECADES, OR MAYBE IT’S THE INFLUENCE OF MICHIGAN’S COLLECTIVE UNCLE BOB SEGER THAT JUST WON’T LET THEM SHAKE THAT LITTLE BIT OF MOTOR CITY ROCK & ROLL.
