First off, let me apologize for neglecting the site for the past few days. I purposely did not post songs over Easter weekend, but then we had an episode of "Appliance Gone Wild" at the house, and I just haven't been on the computer. So, I'm trying to get back on track.
With that said, today I present you with a cover tune... recorded live... with audio quality that leaves a lot to be desired. BUT, for this cover of the Dukes of Hazard theme song "Good Ole Boys," it just works. You get the feeling that this was recorded in a small, backwoods, good ole boy watering hole. Makes me want to dig up some old Dukes of Hazard DVD's (TV series, not the movie).
The band is Thingfish, from Lake Charles, Louisiana, and they are currently recording their debut CD of original music. The core of Thingfish was formed back in 1990 by friends, Tracy McGinnis and Chad Moreno. After taking time for other projects (Tracy is the lead-singer for the Louisiana metal band, CHOKE), they eventually reformed as an acoustic duo. Soon after, they added a full band and started performing 4 to 5 times a month, both acoustic and electric. Keep an eye out for their debut CD, and if you're in the Southwest Louisiana region, go check them out!
Members: Tracy McGinnis, Chad Moreno, Jackie Crittenden, Brian Fruge, Jason Hine, Alaistar White, Brian Moore
