So instead of just letting the footage go to waste, we've started putting together some of the songs from the album with their live counterpart from the live show.So under the video section you'll find…

Making The Best of What's New

The Best of What’s New, the debut CD by The Luckies, was a culmination of many dreams and the emergence of a creative collective that would extend well beyond the band’s players. Initially, songwriter/guitarist Bobbie K Owens was playing a one-off gig with an ad hoc group of friends and caught the attention of the evening’s sound man David Nay.

The Making of The Best of What's New (part 2)

Following the introduction of Dave Merris and the recording of Crazy, a pattern would emerge in which Merris would come to the studio about once every three weeks or so and the band would record the beds for a couple of new songs.

What Jerry Used in Recording

The National Conversation

The National ConversationBy Mindy GilesIt’s a question that everyone faces, but it seems more pressing now. How do you negotiate that path to your innocent essence when adulthood gets in the way? Can muscular rock ‘n’ roll music be more to us than a worn and comfortable Lazy Boy time machine to travel in every decade we get the postcard for a double-digit high school reunion? Is a restless country in perpetual anxiety even allowed the luxury of those kinds of questions these days?

Band Info
