Crazy Cowboy presents: Fargo Railroad Company
w/ Stone Thieves + Matty James Cassidy
Very pleased to be welcoming back three longtime Crazy Cowboy partners in crime!
The Fargo Railroad Co. are a southern rock / Americana inspired 4 piece band from Sheffield, UK. Established in 2013 they have gathered a loyal fan base and continue to add to their numbers regularly playing shows throughout the UK and recently completed their second tour of Spain.
They share a distinct and united love of music with a breadth of appreciation that is truly eclectic – all of this has come together to form their current sound, which has settled in the broad and deep ocean of Southern Rock. Looking at the mighty works of Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Marshall Tucker Band, ’38 Special etc, doffing a cap to the sweet 70’s sound of Cash, Young, Dylan whilst bringing in more contemporary vibes of Blackberry Smoke and Jason Isbell.
Stone Thieves are a 4-piece, country-infused, rock band from London, but their hearts were stolen by an American Dream. Lead singer and songwriter, Aaron, calls upon the honesty and romanticism of americana, slide guitars, heartbeat drums and heartbreak vocals. They specialise in long-haired, tassle-touting, rock n roll music, playing songs about dangerous woman, open roads, gamblers and vagabonds.
"Like CCR with big British b*ll*cks" - Soundlab studios.
"Doused in the great tradition of the quintessentially English take on the electrified sound of American Blues" - Downhill From Here
Matty James Cassidy has rock ‘n’ roll in his veins. Whether it’s folk-rock, the soulful sound of The Faces or Exile era Rolling Stones, country music, or honky tonk blues – he embraces it all and makes it his own. It’s a tradition and a passion for which he remains unapologetic – and serves him well on his debut solo outing, ‘Old Souls’.
Cassidy has been described as “A rousing listen” (Vive Le Rock), “Rabble-rousing & feisty” (Louder Than War), “Pure, honest-to-goodness rawk ’n’ roll” (Uber Rock) and “Proper gritty scuffed-up dust & bones rock” (Pure Rawk).
