Ten Gallon Bratz hail from Greenock in the west of Scotland and began with Mark Dunsmore and Barrie Kelly back in the early nineties. After amassing a substantial and ever-growing body of work they decided to form a band to showcase the songs.
Ten Gallon Bratz exists in two forms, a three-piece acoustic band and a full blown five-piece band.
In addition to their latest release "Tales From The Long Shadows", the band has produced a number of demo CDs. Their thirteen track acoustic CD entitled "GHOST STORIES" (yes, well before Coldplay!) has been a great success and their second studio recorded album, "The Wilderness" demonstrating that the guys were in this for the long haul.
The Wilderness album, which was partly recorded at Riverside studios by Duncan Cameron who has also worked with the like of Travis and Trash Can Sinatras, is a mixture of acoustic and full band tracks and, s with Ghost Stories, is available to download скачать here.
However, their latest release, "Tales From The Long Shadows" is the bands jewel in the crown and demonstrates the songwriting prowess that really is the foundation of Ten Gallon Bratz. This album was recorded by world renowned producer Mark Freegard ( Del Amitri; Eddie Reader (to name but a few)) in his intimate but inimitable Kyoti Studio in Glasgow, Scotland.
In their career the guys have provided support slots for renowned artists such as legendary musician Albert Lee, as well as Colin Hay (Men At Work) Glen Tilbrook (Squeeze) Jan Akkerman (Focus), Eleanor McEvoy and JJ Gilmour (Silencers). They have also performed n a number of occasions at Glasgow's famous Celtic Connections festival.
Ten Gallon Bratz music is broadly based in the Americana tradition where glorious three part harmonies are seamlessly combined with infectious hooks and intelligent lyrics. The band in general continues to increase its fan base due to a growing reputation for memorable songs combined with entertaining live shows.
