Now, with the release of the their first record in 20 years, Providence, the band along with their long-time fans feel like the prodigal son has finally came home.   Kelley sheds some light on the early years of the band, traveling for years in a Suburban and trailer while putting off the comforts of a bus, as well as the connection to rising star in the scene, Wyatt Flores; not to mention their recent appearances on the Grand Ole Opry and a gig at The Ryman Auditorium.   The episode wouldn’t be complete without us conversing on the mega-show(s) coming up in April in Stillwater where the biggest bands in Red Dirt will perform for 4 days in a row:  The Boys From Oklahoma.   Enjoy the episode!   We’re also excited to say that we are now an affiliate for Sweetwater.  So, the next time you need any new strings, picks, microphones, recording gear, etc. make sure to use this link!
