Josh Abbott Band - She's Like Texas

The Southwest is one of the few remaining regions left that can sustain a music industry of its own and that is due to many quaility bands working that scene with original music.  Does the Josh Abbott Band add anything to the scene?

The band’s latest release, their second long-player, She’s Like Texas features a nice mix of fiddle and guitar-laden tunes like the sweetly romantic title track (now a hit on the Texas Music Charts) and “I Just Wanna Love You.”  Roger Creager and Trent Willmon join the group on the mid-tempo ‘proud to be country’ song titled “End Of A Dirt Road.”   There fun songs like “Road Trippin’ are nicely balanced by the ballads like “Hot Water” and the stunning and heartfelt album ender “Let My Tears Be Still.” 

Even though She’s Like Texas may not get the band into the Nashville mainstream, the band certainly proves their worth as one of Texas’s most promising bands by mixing those ballads with crowd pleasing hits like “All of A Sudden.”
