Authentic Hillbilly Music comes from the heart and must have a down home provenance like Texas or Kentucky. Today many folks are trying to recreate authentic hillbilly music. But living in the urban city doesn’t cut it. Thats why they are recreating..............and not being the real deal........
Well, here enters Slick Andrews. A long time performer, native of Texas and resident of Kentucky. Slick’s twangy voice isn’t manufactured or contrived............... He is what he is.......... He is recreating nothing.......he is living it. His lyrics aren’t copycat from Hank Williams or Faron Young. They are from a life of heartbreak, ups and downs and hard knocks. Slick is a farm boy with attitude.
Most recently, Slick gathered with Wild Hare Records best pickers to lay down 12 tracks of pure country music. ....The way Wild Hare likes to do it. You see, Wild Hare Records believes that REAL Rockabilly is really souped up hillbilly. If it ain’t got twang...it ain’t real rockabilly. Many people feel that Slick Andrews is the ultimate rockabilly!
The CD is entitled "Let’s Beer it Up with Slick Andrews and the Wild Hare Millionaires". As Slick says "there is something for everyone on the CD". From 1930's wild Western Swing, to pure early 50's Honky-tonk, to mid 50's Hillbilly based Rockabilly to Mickey Gilley swingin’ piano country. This CD is a breath of fresh air in a world of look a likes and sound a likes.
The musicianship is top notch with 3 different lead guitar players, 2 steel players, real piano and the best rhythm section in the business. All recorded to glorious analog tape with the now famous Wild Hare Records vintage sound.
