"Countryfied" - Music Video

Outlaw Country comes from years of dedication, love of family, being American, and a deep appreciation of American music. They are Carpenters, Masons, Painters, Laborers, and even farmers, just everyday people like you and me. Growing up, they had been influenced by Kiss, Motley Crue, AC/DC, Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Scorpions and many other rock bands of their teenage years. But, if anyone ever says they haven't listened to, or wasn't influenced by country music, there probably wrong. Although performing most of his musical career up to this point in rock bands, Jamie would come to listen mostly to country music as he grew older. It seemed only natural after his last, fairly successful, rock band broke up, after only 3 years, to turn to country music.

Norm Coleman, the producer of the last rock album Jamie had performed on recognized his potential to be a great country performer. So when he came to Jamie suggesting he "go country", it didn't take much prodin. So here we are today...

Norm knew the right guys to bring together, a culmination of rock, blues and country artists each bringing their unique style. Jim Morgan, former guitarist with Fly on guitar, Scott Fisher who also plays drums for Crop Circle on drums, Joe Boettger on keys. Jamie recruited Smudge on bass, Smudge played breifly as the bassist for After The Ashes.

Outlaw Country is not your typical country, it's Country with a Rock edge, Contemporary Contry, it's OUTLAW COUNTRY!

Country Music is music which is unique to the USA. It is all about a lifestyle. Country folk are down to earth, hard working individuals the likes of which helped shape this great land. Settlers pioneered their way westward to settle in all parts of what is now the 48 contiguous states of the United States of America. They planted crops and started ranches, built cities and tamed the "Wild West". In the process they helped create the legends of the great American Cowboy.   They rode in the North, South, East, West, Southwest, Northwest, the Great Plains, in Kentucky, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Wyoming and as far north as Montana and North Dakota. You didn't have to be from the south to be a cowboy, they were everywhere... and Country Music was born!

Yes Country is a way of life, it represents:

1, Family
2, Working hard,
3, Being honest and respectful
3, Being an AMERICAN.

It's a proud way of life because the roots that bond this great country run deep. Country lyrics tell a story, convey feeling and emotion, like a short story which is put to music... Enter Outlaw Country !
