The Coal Men – Reagan Boggs opens
May 31, 2011 | 0 commentsSometimes, the sum of something is much greater than it’s parts….this is exceptionally true when it comes to Nashville-based band, The Coal Men, who have just released their CD, Kids With Songs, on Funzalo Records. Now a road tested and more focused band, Kids With Songs is the product of ‘divorce, death and broken bones’ among other life changing events. This is an especially auspicious occasion, as this is also the tenth anniversary of the bands’ formation. Funzalo is expecting nothing but success for this phenomenal trio. Featuring lead singer/guitarist Dave Coleman, drummer Dave Ray, and Bassist Hitch(short for Hitchcock), The Coal Men’s music is rich, full of melody and hooks, and incredibly entertaining. Songs that tell stories that convey pain, love, longing, hope, and hopelessness. Behind those lyrics lies music that is lush and beautiful.

Grant Peeples

His songs and his performances are strictly bereft of cliché and sentimentality. There is never an “ooh baby” in a Grant Peeples song. There are no white picket fences. His songs bite and twist, turn on a phrase, dig beneath the surface of appearances. He violates the “ No Trespassing” signs, peeks over the backyard fences of the culture. Then he picks up his guitar and lets you know what he’s seen–unapologetically–like a poet would anchor the Six O’clock News. And you know right away….he’s not making this stuff up. Once you listen to Grant’s songs, see his performance, the old tobacco barn in that empty field across from your Wal-mart won’t look quite the same as it did before. Tickets are $12 in advance, $17 day of show visit his...
