True West - a modern New England country band.
Recognized by the two dominant N.E. country music organizations as best new and best country band, True West plays a rough and ready up-tempo modern country style emphasizing the silky vocals of Laura Pratt and tight ensemble instrumentation with a ferocious kick and relentless groove. Add in 3 male backup/lead vocals, two snarling guitars and stir together with a 65 song repertoire for a crowd pleasing recipe.
True West’s song list emphasizes danceability and a rhythm section with a hard beat, perfect for line dancing or a free dancing rock n’ roll crowd. Simmer the whole stew and season with over 250 performances in their four year history and you’ve got a versatile and professional country band, perfect for all occasions.
True West is on a mission - to spread country music - and we're coming your way soon.
