![]() I mean that's what Them Wranch is all about, right? It's not about slamming into your neighbor and pushin' 'em down. It's about sliding next to 'em and holdin' 'em up, real close. If you're one of the lucky ones to catch Them Wranch li ![]() Them Wranch consists of Andy Ranch (singing and guitar), Gerry Morrison (bass and singing), and 1/2 of the defunct Hairy Patt Band, Joe Patt (singing and drumming). Gigging locally, regionally, and releasing several 7"s since 1996 Them Wranch released their first full length "Big Noise From East Maynard" in 2000 and went nationwide. The band has toured the country several times on their own and with England's extraordinary Country Teasers. After rejecting offers and huge sums of money from hundreds of record labels the boys decide to go with Orange Recordings for the release of their second and current full length, "Medium Rare" . The deal with Orange was clinched when Them Wranch rolled into San Diego strung out from the road and were treated like kings to beer and fish tacos by Ron Sievers, Orange president and founder. If "Big Noise From East Maynard" was a sonic testament to life in Columbus, Ohio then "Medium Rare" is the sound of years of musical inbreeding giving birth to a bastard that's so beautiful it's ugly. We don't need to tell you who the many parents are, but if that's your thing then listen to the disc and you can probably figure it out yourself. It's just a sample of what you can get from Them Wranch who may be bringing it to your town in 2001. Anyway, there's only so much that can be said, but so much more that can be heard. Cheers! |
