小简介
Often described as a cross between Alabama and Lynyrd Skynyrd, Confederate Railroad made their name with a party-ready hybrid of modern country and Southern rock, which also earned them comparisons to Charlie Daniels and Hank Williams, Jr. Their trashy, roughneck wardrobe was a good indicator of their rowdy, tongue-in-cheek sense of humor, but they were also able to balance that with a sincere sentimental streak. Singer/guitarist Danny Shirley, lead guitarist Michael Lamb, steel guitarist Gates Nichols, keyboardist Chris McDaniel, bassist Wayne Secrest, and drummer Mark Dufresne got together in the early 80s and spent years playing the Atlanta bar scene, eventually merging into a tight unit with original material. They served as the house band at Miss Kittys in Marietta, GA, for several years and also worked as a backing band on the road behind Johnny Paycheck and David Allan Coe. After around a decade of dues-paying, Confederate Railroad finally earned a shot with Atlantic, and released their self-titled debut album in 1992. Lead single She Took It Like a Man inched into the Top 40, but the record really took off with the next two singles; Jesus and Mama and Queen of Memphis both shot into the country Top Five. Fan favorite Trashy Women also made the Top Ten, and two additional singles — When You Leave That Way You Can Never Go Back and She Never Cried — hit the Top 40. With such a large store of hits, Confederate Railroad went double platinum. The bands 1994 follow-up, Notorious, also sold over a million copies and spawned another Top Ten hit with Daddy Never Was the Cadillac Kind; another concert favorite, Elvis and Andy, made the Top 20. The title track of 1995s When and Where proved to be their last significant hit for a while, and guitarist Lamb left the band, to be replaced by Jimmy Dormire. 1998s Keep on Rockin confirmed the bands downward commercial slide, and keyboardist McDaniel eventually left as well; his replacement was Cody McCarver. Confederate Railroad parted ways with Atlantic and signed with the smaller Audium label for their next album, 2001s Unleashed. Cheap Thrills followed six years later from Shanachie Records in 2007.
