Feeling a little bit country and a little bit rock and roll? Well, come down to James Park this July 17th 2008 to satisfy your hunger with Chicago’s own The Hoyle Brothers.
A lively quintet, these honkytonk boys have been playing the Chicago scene since 2002 with weekly appearances at The Hideout and The Empty Bottle. They won over fans and critics throughout the city with their genuine country sound and skillful musicianship. Just like the great old country songs you heard when you were a kid, their lyrics speak of universal truths, their melodies melt your heart, and their rockin’ beats get your boots moving. They are "as country as it gets . . . [they] remind me of a neon buzz, a beer buzz and a ‘you gotta see this band’ buzz," said Craig Shelburne of Country Music Television.
In 2004, The Brothers released their debut album Back to the Door which was met with great reviews. Not only did it earn the No. 1 Debut Album in 2004 on the Freeform American Roots “Best of 2004” poll, but it was hailed as the “holy grail” of country and blues music by Rural Delivery TV. In 2006, they released One More Draw which proved to be a fine follow up to their popular first CD.
The Hoyle Brothers have also played at many epic country venues like the famous Grand Ole' Opry for their Plaza Party last June and Austin’s monumental South by Southwest (SXSW) in 2005.
To see The Hoyle Brothers in action, swing down to the Empty Bottle in Chicago any Friday night from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. for their Hardcore Honkytonk Happy Hour. Best part? It’s free!
Don’t forget to catch The Hoyle Brothers tear down the house this July 17, 2008 at James Park and as their festive website cryptically beckons . . .
“C'mon, Nancy. Time's a wasting.”
