What I'm Listening To - Josh Abbott Band

Hey readers,

This week I wanted to switch it up a little bit.  It might be shocking but I do listen to other genres.  Such as country.  I think country is similar to rap, but from a different perspective.  They both talk about the same things;  women, their upbringing, making it big, drinking, etc...  Anyway, The Josh Abbott Band was founded in Lubbock, Texas by a group of Phi Delts at Texas Tech University in 2006.  So much of country nowadays is overproduced and made to sell.  This isn't true of the Josh Abbott Band.  They make music because they care, and even recently released a song entitled "Victory Bells" about Texas Tech, and half of the money spent goes to scholarships for the university.  I thought this was really cool.  Here are the links to some of my favorite Josh Abbott Band songs.

So that's The Josh Abbott Band for you.  I know it's a little bit different from what I have been putting up, but I like them.  Well, thanks for reading The Jack Barton Blog and have a nice day!
