All right now, it’s Girls, Guns, and Glory recorded at the Hill Country BBQ in Washington DC on February 7, 2013. Yep, it’s genuine Honky Tonk music. We heard “Snake Skin Belt”, “Honky Tonk Blues” and “Lonesome Train”. Now here’s a Hank Williams song, “Move It On Over”.

Now that’s what I’m talking about. It’s Back Forty singing “A New Loud”. Before that they were driving their “Groove Tractor”.

Back Forty was recorded live at the Corner Brewery in Ypsilanti, Michigan, on February 16, 2013. They can play blues and they can play bluegrass.

Here they are again with a jugband standard called “Stealin”.

Oh yeah, it’s Back Forty with one of my favorite songs, “Stealin”.
