The straight ahead, hard driving, stripped down sound of rock & roll and blues in the classic roadhouse tradition gets kicked into high gear with tasty guitar licks, memorable riffs, and a cast of groove oriented players. One listen and you're instantly transported to a roadhouse where the smoke is as thick as the smell of stale beer, sawdust covers the floor , neon signs line the walls, and you don't even care that your sleeves are stuck to the muck on the bar because the place is jumping to barrelhouse rhythm & blues. It's in this atmosphere that Crixell (pronounced Crishell) cut his musical teeth as a kid in and around Texas and what he's captured so effectively on the tracks of "One Roadhouse Away", a foot stompin', spirited collection of barn burnin' rockers and soulful blues tunes.
