"Comanchero's country-funk thunder melds a rambling jam sensibility with genuine boot-stomping twang. Shades of Widespread Panic, CAKE, and Wilco in these feverish Cactus Rock rhythms." -Relix Magazine

Since 2003, Comanchero has crafted an Americana sound that combines old traditions with new, Country with Rock, Bluegrass with Blues, Honky-Tonk with Funk, and Roots with Rockabilly. While unique in their own sound, there is something strikingly familiar in Comanchero's songs that weave influences ranging from The Allman Brothers, The Band, Little Feat, & Led Zeppelin, to today's contemporaries such as Wilco, The Drive -By Truckers, & Mumford & Sons.

Soulful and edgy, heartbreaking and heart making, Comanchero's third release, "The Undeserved" will stay in your ears for a long time to come. Boston's Americana Jam Band takes us through our human landscape of hope and despair, the good times and our lost ways.

The stage energy, combined with carefully crafted songs and precise execution distinguish Comanchero as one of the rising Americana & jam-influenced bands on the East Coast. The band's sound is edgy, tangible, eclectic, and totally danceable. As Jane Lindholm, Director and Associate Producer at National Public Radio observed: "Alt-Country Folk Rock melodies combine with great hooks and catchy lyrics to create a thoroughly enjoyable listening experience."

CITIZEN SLIM is a new band that eschews acoustic guitars for Telecasters. Ryan Fitzsimmons, Greg Klyma, Chris DeSanty and Joe Klompus rock the shared love country roots music with electricity.
