Talent, hard work and a certain unity of spirit are the key ingredients that make a band successful. The Desert City Ramblers possess exactly that – the shared creative vision that encompasses so much more than lyrics and chords. Each band member could be a solo force, but there’s just something about the chemistry when they play together that transcends their individual gifts.
The Desert City Ramblers’ sound is hard to pin a label on. It combines a gritty Southern rock edge and blistering musicianship with the kind of compelling storytelling that is the foundation of old school country music. As a former Top 10 solo artist, lead singer Brian McComas had begun writing songs reminiscent of the ones he grew up listening to by the Allman Brothers, Roy Orbison, the Eagles and Lynyrd Skynyrd. “I realized: these are not songs for a solo artist. It’s is going to take a group of musicians that relate to this lifestyle."
McComas knew what he wanted to do: put together a band that shared the same influences that made him want to write songs in the first place. Joining him on this latest musical effort are guitarist Scotty Bratcher, keyboard player Andy Smith, bassist Kieran Cronley, drummer Isaiah Lyon and guitarist Bart Walker (who also plays in Hank Williams Jr.’s band).
The Desert City Ramblers are already out on the road, taking their songs to a growing number of fans hungry for this genuine approach to music.
