I saw these guys by chance a couple of years ago and made sure to get their CD at the merch table on the way out. They grew up in the Catskills and later spent time as NYC street performers before getting signed. Judging by song titles like Oxycontin and Whiskey in my Whiskey, these guys haven't necessarily been walking the straight and narrow. This song has great runs of words in each of its verses, like "You got me off a bender after long-legged Brenda died."

They seem to have the feel of the early Bruce and the E Street band.
