Bruce Springsteen. In 2019 Springsteen debuted his "modern cowboy" album "Western Stars" followed by a concert movie of the of the same name. We were intrigued by his song "Tucson Train" about a lost love reunion. You can listen to our cover of it here:

Letting the inner cowboy out. Boots, check. Hat, check. Gretsch electric guitar, check. Cowboy-Hawaiian shirt, check. Singing the No. 1 western song of all time: "Ghost Riders In The Sky", check. Is there any place I'd rather be? 🤠

Arranger-Producer-Organist Booker T. Jones. Our inspiration for A Little Farther West is "Hang 'Em High" by Booker T. and the MGs (#9 in 1968). Our arrangements derive from his stellar work with the MGs, Bill Withers, Willie Nelson, to Aaron Dessner today: https://t.co/0YpEXgtaMU

Susie's 2017 Vox Continental 61 organ manufactured by Korg delivers the mid-century vibe for which A Little Farther West is known. It's the sound of "I'm A Believer", "Light My Fire", "House Of The Rising Sun", and "Mendocino". Catch it on our "Theme From Magnificent Seven".

@rmaxwellc A big western shout out to Riders In The Sky on the release of their 42nd album "Throw A Saddle On A Star." Here we are awhile back at Robert's fifth time as opening act for the 'best rootin' tootin' cowboy music and comedy show on the planet!' https://t.co/PNFNq250yO

A shout out to Oklahoma's own @jdmcphersonjr currently in the middle of a second leg of the Robert Plant & Alison Krauss "Raise The Roof" tour. 2022's biggest Americana music tour started up again on April 25th in Shreveport, LA and finishes up in Toronto, ON on July 5th. (1/3)

[A Little Farther West @rmaxwellc]

J.D. is not only the leader of the backing band performing stellar guitar solos, but is also opening act. Susie & Robert caught the show in September 2022 in Dallas, TX. Plant & Krauss' "Raise .The Roof" received more airplay than any other Americana music album last year. (2/3)

Where in the world will you find a re-creation of a late 1800's cattle drive twice a day? At the Fort Worth Stockyards national historic district, that's where. We like to call it the 'center of the cowboy universe' 1/3
