Coyote Blue "THE EDGE OF THE CANYON" © 2005 (Independently Released) Review by Lucky Boyd Northeast Texas has plenty of talent. You won't get much argument on that point. And yes, there are some diverse bands out there. Not a big deal. Where so much diverse talent resides there should be a plethora of great entertaining bands, right? Well maybe not. Certainly not like Coyote Blue. This mainstay mostly-cover band is made up of pickers who collectively have seen every decade of music up close since the 60's. The youngsters in the band add a feel to the timeless expressions of the road-proven veterans. Jerry Arnold and C.W. Nichols have traveled well and bring those nostalgic influences to throngs of adoring audiences who can't get enough of that 'dance with who brung ya' feeling. Jay Hunter and Sean Womack add spice to the mix by inserting their more recent influences into the Coyote Blue experience. One of the most entertaining dance bands around, Coyote Blue also has a line up of original tunes that you'll love. The official 2005 release is a twelve-cut gem with some great standards and a surprise or two. Give a listen and get your copy of "THE EDGE OF THE CANYON" today.
