Wonderfully atmospheric guitarscapes paint vivid images of love, loss and regret lived out in one no-hope town to the next, in the bars, in shady motels and the highways and byways in-between.

This is classy stuff with a sense of mischief and the luxurious... not a party band for a sunny afternoon in the park but if you're looking for bleak and moody then you know where to look...

France-based Brit, Stephen J. Howard, "slides buffed-up Morrissey vocal inflections through a late 80’s guitar-pop/slight post-punk juxtaposition, that is as unusual as it is beautiful." Janglepophub review of "Come Back When It's Over" 10/11/2020

From Hank to Buck and Merle, Wills, Gram to Earle--"We got both kinds of music here--we got country AND western". East Lonesome Drifters is a five-piece outfit that pay homage to traditional country, honkytonk, western swing, Bakersfield and bluegrass.  With three part harmonies, acoustic guitar, pedal steel, telecaster and bass (and the occasional washboard, piano and harmonica thrown in) Yank singer Crispy Cowboy gives authentic voice to the stories behind the songs.  Country Music People magazine says "Possibly the best classic country, honky tonk and western swing you are likely to hear this side of the Atlantic. It really is that good!"
