Loving the chilling guitar rifts and blues twang of the Red Clay Strays debut album, “Moment of Truth.” This band who has already been in existence for 5 years mainly playing the scene around the Gulf Coast hails from Mobile, Alabama.
A great read by musiccitymemo.com explains how the band began a crowd funding campaign last February and raised over 48,000 in a week to create this album inspired by southern music.
Title Track on the album was written by Matthew Coleman along with 4 other tracks on the album. Other tunes on the record were composed by the bands lead Brandon Coleman, who grew up in red dirt rural Alabama. Drew Nix, the bands guitarist also put his hand into writing several songs for the project.
It ain’t quite Texas but it’s red dirt music to it’s core.
Pancho.
