“If you’ve ever wondered what it would sound like if Jack White made interesting music as a solo artist—and God knows I sure have—then buckle up, buttercup! The Oil Barons are here with that perfect mixture of blues rock and garage rock that makes you do the Macho Man Randy Savage, “Oh, yeah!”. There are even notes of outlaw country thrown in for extra flavor. Put this one on right before you round up your posse to rob a train.”

“Lot of fun this one, like the western theme. Fuzzy southwestern goodness.”

“This is smoking guys! As in any accomplished 3-piece, the rhythm is king and boy does that rhythm shine. Smoldering bass, twangy blues age riffs, punk rock attitude and loaded with progressive twists and turns. The West is Won wins out if you’re looking for a surf rock inspired progressive blues band with punk rock roots and doo-wop vibes. They need to hook up with Shotgun Sawyer and go shred the world together! 😎”
