Review: Three Chords and the Truth 

You can't keep a good man down and Jason Ringenberg is one of the best of them. Boosted by the reception and satisfaction of his 2018 album STAND TALL, everybody's favourite cowpunk, witty, incisive, intelligent lyricist is back with another…

Review: World Magazine

Rhinestoned by Jason Ringenberg: There’s enough hillbilly in Ringenberg’s singing and enough Appalachia in his rock ’n’ roll to make the wide-ranging subjects of his recent forays into homage-paying seem radical in the most literal sense. Last time it was…

Review: Orange Flag Music (Netherlands)

Het is een ongeschreven regel binnen de country muziek dat niet iedereen zich zomaar een hillbilly mag noemen. Vroeger had je artiesten zoals Jimmie Rodgers, Hank Williams en later Waylon Jennings en Willie Nelson die de naam hillbilly met trots…
