Performing at the 60th Annual Gregg County Fair & Exposition Show from 9:30-10:15, Wednesday night, Sept. 9, 2009, at the Fairgrounds. Get Directions.

The best description of the musical attitude and style of this band can be summed up by the phrase, "Old-school Country". When you hear them play, it’s hard to miss this band’s biggest country influences; such as, Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, Willie Nelson, Buck Owens, and Patsy Cline.

During live shows, the band offers up a mix of modern country, classic country, Texas rock, and original songs, always incorporating varying tempos and styles to keep the dancing crowd on their toes. Some crowd favorites include “Folsom Prison Blues”, “Seminole Wind”, “I Think I'll Just Stay Here and Drink" and “Texas When I Die.”

They’re just as capable of performing Texas artist hits such as Kevin Fowler’s “Ain’t Drinkin’ Anymore” as they are of belting out Haggard’s “Workin’ Man Blues.” This band is all about entertaining, having a great time, and bringing the crowd into the experience with them.

Todd Bonner and Beth Matlock are the two originators and lead vocals of this Longview, Texas based band. While playing in a late night patio jam session in Longview, Bonner and Matlock met up and began singin’ and pickin’ at various local venues together – Bonner on guitar and Matlock adding fiddle and mandolin to the mix. Not long after, they added Justin Bonner (also from Longview) on drums. The trio continued playing local gigs while searching for other band members who shared their same passion for classic country music. It wasn’t long before they attracted Jimmy Quinn (Jacksonville) on bass and David Day on rhythm (Lufkin), who also shares some of the vocal load. The culmination of talent in this band truly represents a wide range of East Texas towns, giving crowds a true Texas sound that’s hard to beat!
