About Us
Outlaws are still alive and well!
Just when it seemed the entire music world had gone politically correct, out of the deep Piney Woods of NE Texas comes a throwback to the days when an outlaw could be an outlaw.
The Roger Cowan Band takes no prisoners with their simple, straight-forward approach to ass-kicking country. You want to hear alot of over produced, multitracked radio-friendly music? You're in the wrong place!
Drawing influences from outlaws both new and old, from Waylon Jennings to Jackson Taylor, from Johhny cash to Ozzy Osbourne, the RCB brings forth a raw, aggressive approach to music. An in your face, say what we want, no holds barred attack on the establishment. With songs like "Juke Joint Jesus" and "Leave Me Alone", to mournful songs of broken hearts and pushing ahead in life "Fallen Angels" and "Like a Rollin Stone," the RCB is sure to reach everyone. Bringing to life the day to day emotions every soul goes through.
If George Strait and Lynyrd Skynyrd had mated, the result would be Roger Cowan!
Growing up the son of an old school honky tonk hellraiser, Roger learned from an early age what it meant to be true to yourself. Take no shit and never let anyone hold you down. A lesson taught early and proven often, Roger brings the same approach to his music.
"Some folks may not like the songs I sing or care for the attitude I put off, but they don't have to listen. I write from the heart and all those haters can kiss my Texas ass!"- Roger Cowan, 2008
A no-nonsense, what you see is what you get outlook on life, with gritty, whiskey-fueled lyrics, make his songs something not for the faint of heart and strong on moral character. Covering topics such as getting drunk and going to jail, or getting high and waking up with a stranger, nothing is sacred or taboo.
