“WE SHOULD START A BAND” was the sentiment between friends in the Winter of 2017. Pat McHenry, known for his work with Mon Cheri of Spokane, WA, had slowly come back around to his Texas and country roots in 2013.
His success in music had come early in the form of songwriting in his pop-rock band winning The Inlander’s (E Washington, N Idaho, W Montana region) Best Songwriter several years in a row and syncing many of his original songs to various shows (MTV Cribs, ABC, TBS, Cougartown, Foxnews), commercials (Comcast, The Superbowl, Kelly Slater Wave Co), movies (Connect To, Kiss and Cry, Netflix), and jingles (Global Credit Union, The Cut Shop, Oliver Men’s Shop).
“When I moved to Seattle I was looking for a great drummer. I met Bruce Weitz through a friend and we had instant chemistry.” Bruce cut his teeth on the road touring the country and abroad with his hardcore band Vayden. He found success signing with Jeff Hanson’s now defunct Silent Majority Records. “I was looking for some other bands to gig with and that’s when I found Andy Shofner on Youtube.” Andy had grown up on George Strait and classic country gold. He made a name for himself burning down honky tonks and venues all across the south Puget Sound area with Jordan Binkiewicz in his band Colt and the Peacemakers for many years.
“My dream was to play with a pedal steel guitar player.” Kevin Redlich of Tempe, AZ had made a name for himself as one of the most sought after guitarists in the entire southwest region. After touring the US with his band and spending time as an engineer in platinum selling studios, he decided to land in the PNW. The debut full length album Cowboy Songs is due out November 26th on 12′ vinyl and CD.
