Chongos - Album #2
Released in October 2016, the Fatties FINALLY got around to releasing the second album...and it was a hell of a ride.
You can check it out the full album on iTunes and GooglePlay.
The Fatties
Some say that classic country and blues are a thing of the past, but, if you pull a bottle of Jack and turn back the dial, you might find them on your radio. "The Fatties" are proud to play music that takes you back to the days when bar-room fights and chicken-wire were acceptable.
Since beginning in 2006 in Lubbock, Tx, Lager & the Fatties began as a simple cover-band at some seedy college bars. If they weren't playing 20 minutes country/blues jams, they were covering the likes of Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, BB King, Robert Earl, Blues Brothers, etc. Soon, they had a solid following and were playing 4-5 hour sets along the Broadway Strip and "The Depot" area in downtown. Fueled by Makers, Jager & smokes, they were known around Lubbock as one HELL of a good time. Traveling around Texas for a couple summers, they soon were writing their own music and realized that they had a unique sound of classic country with a bluesy feel.
After a couple of years off, it's time to get the party started again. Lager & the Fatties have FINALLY gotten in the studio and went to work. Their first album, "Whiskey Feelin", was produced at Fort Worth Sound in November 2013. This album is a collection of songs that have been written over a span of several years. Many of the songs were written in the oil patch where they were picking a guitar and waiting for "black gold" to shoot out of the ground. It was time to put these songs on paper and get back in the music scene.
