Bourbon Sprawl @ the Long Shot Saloon June 6, 2009

Bourbon Sprawl is a rock and roll band, based out of Marquette Michigan that incorporates a lively blend of rock and roll with a sprinkling of americana and alt-country roots music.

If you are looking for a straight up, double fisted, take no prisoners, screaming out the window, crawling through the alley with one shoe on rock and roll band, look no further. You can currently find Bourbon Sprawl blazing their way across the backwoods of the Upper Peninsula in a rusty van bringing their full frontal assault to the huddled masses.

They are available and able to play at bars, taverns, saloons, pubs, juke joints, speakeasies, LasVegas wedding ceremonies, funeral homes, private parties, oil rigging platforms, riverboat casinos (only the kind with those big paddle wheels on the sides) small Stadiums or large Arenas, coloseums both ancient and modern, and any other occassion where one is liable to find cigarettes, whiskey and women.

The band is currently playing a great mix of rockin’ tunes in the local bars and working on original material. If you have suggestions for songs you would like to hear, please e-mail the band and let them know. They are constantly adding new (and old) songs to their setlist so you wont have to listen to the same songs every time you hear them play.

Quotes :::::::::::::::
“Did you see the band… there are only 3 guys and it sounds like a whole band”
“They sound like a good jukebox turned up nice and loud.”
“Very interesting choice of songs from Slayer to Neil Diamond. And from The Ramones to Hendrix.. I enjoyed every second of it.”
“Take your pants off…”
