The Wangford BASS COMBO

 












Get Down into the Bassment with the
Wangford Bass Combo!


The Bass Combo is an experimental
exploration of the reverberant lower depths of Country music.


What better way of navigating the dark
underbelly of Country than with the thump and thud of twin bass guitars drilling
their way through sad songs of lost love, breakups and betrayal, the malignant
glue of relationships and the sticky end of the divorce court.


Singing songs from the Dark Side of life is
so much better down in the shadowy sonic world below 150 Hertz.


HANK WANGFORD,
the grizzled Godfather of British alt. Country, is joined by two members of his
band the Lost Cowboys.


Kevin KillaHertz Foster, the Jaco Pastorius
of Country music, is the bass player of the Lost Cowboys, ex- Doll by Doll and
with his own combo Under The Influence.


Spanner Subwoofa Robinson is the new
Chanteuse with the Cowboys bringing her heaven sent harmonies to Hank’s songs.
As a bass player she is an alumnus of the fine Americana band The Hallelujah
Trails.


Together the three decided to explore
Country from the bottom up, back to bass basics. The bass line in any song is
mostly felt then forgotten and the Bass Combo seeks to home in on this unsung
carrier of sad songs.


When misery’s that deep, for a Boombastic
Country experience it must be the Wangford Bass Combo.


Get Down!
