About Me |
|
A Texas Trio which plays a large mix of Punkabilly, Neo-Rockabilly to Country Cowpunk. Singing songs about Fast Cars, Fast Women, Whiskey, Cocaine and Texas. It's always one hell of a good Texas time with these boys! Using Stand Up Bass with Shannon Marino, Drums as a timing chain with James Fitzy, and Xavier's Power Chord mix and Texas Twang guitar sound, along with belting out and hollering all the tunes, this band keeps it Revved up like no other. They have shared the stage and road with many folks such as Reverend Horton Heat, Devil Doll, Mad Sin, Supersuckers, Hank Williams III, even Country Fav Dale Watson, just to mention a few.

A full frontal triad with guitar/stand up/drums virtual WMD's behind Xavier Ortiz Lone Star declamatory sneering's, this Bar Room hit squared leaves none unviolated. Guitarist/Singer Ortiz pens the assauultive material and drummer Nic Botello and stand up bassist Chris Parrish have his back and then some. Close your eyes, and you can practically smell the beer. Don't fuck with Texas Rock'nRoll. 5 Stars RECOMMENDED TRACKS: "Git Gone", "Texas Sky" "Back Seat", "Pissed and Depressed". - November / December 2005 Dallas Observer - December 2005 CD Review "Under The Texas Sky" The unlikely fusion of rockabilly and gothic punk has produced some freakish results (Dallas' own Ghoultown comes to mind), but Austin's Hotrod Hillbillies only nibble at the nether regions of the mascara and tombstone crowd. The trio's debut Under the Texas Sky is country punk saturated in Budweiser and infused with an authentic retro vibe, a blindingly paced, 17-track homage to George Jones and Glen Danzig ("Skulls," the Misfits' classic, gets done up as a hayseed shuffle). Frontman Xavier Ortiz dispenses fucked-up backwoods wisdom on bawdy numbers such as "Pissed and Depressed," "She's the Devil" and "Let's Alcoholass." Rarely have humor, hubris and hysterics been so cleverly employed in the guise of rock and roll reverence. -Darryl Smyers More Press and info at www.HotrodHillbillies.com |
