The brand new eponymous instrumental album "Sit Down, Servant!!" follows their acclaimed debut "I Was Just Trying To Help".  Following successful North American tours with Joe Satriani and George Thorogood along with headlining shows across Canada and  in their hometown Austin, Texas, look for Sit Down, Servant!! on tour in support of Joe Satriani across Europe June 2014.﻿

Sit Down, Servant!! is Gordie Johnson's latest musical creation: a band comprising of him playing a triple neck steel guitar and Moog bass pedals accompanied by Brannen Temple on drums. Both accomplished musicians in their own rights, with a breadth of experience and knowledge between them the duo take listeners on a musical journey. The group began with more traditional elements of gospel and blues that evolved to incorporate flavors with roots in areas like dub and hip-hop. Performances will see them drop into a jazz standard before journeying through the sounds of Miles Davis, shifting into Dave Brubeck, to The Police and then Mulatu Astatke - all in one song. "We converse musically without needing words or even visual cues." Johnson states. "We're very agile."

RELIX MAGAZINE REVIEW- “Chris Colepaugh is all about the melody. That’s not to say that this son of Southern blues doesn’t rock. Just listen to what happens when he unleashes his doubleneck Gibson on tunes such as “Some Things Never Change” on his latest album Missed a Page. Guitar riffs don’t get much thicker than this. But Colepaugh is more of the school of Stephen Stills restraint than Lynyrd Skynyrd abandon. Listen to how he holds back the instrumentation—just enough—on “Some Time Away.” The effects are enticing vocals that float on top of the musical stream, underscoring the strong yet dreamy message. As if that’s not enough variety, Colepaugh mixes it up a bit, adding steel guitar and slow burning percussion to the blues anthem “What You Need.” 

Blending equal parts southern-inspired rock with a heavy dose of the blues, Chris Colepaugh and the Cosmic Crew have rightfully earned a reputation for crowd-pleasing, hard-driving rock. The multiple award-winning group, fronted by guitar virtuoso Chris Colepaugh, has spent more than two decades actively touring Canada and the United States, supporting acts including Gov't Mule, The North Mississippi All Stars and Big Sugar. The group's latest effort, RnR, pays homage to the stripped down rock and roll of years past, but with modern touches. Chris Colepaugh is proudly endorsed by Gibson Guitars, Traynor Amplifiers and Sennheiser Microphones.
