Album Review

There's a difference between being a band that plays in a lot of bars and being a bar band, but the distinctions blur a bit on this live set from Oklahoma country-rocker Stoney LaRue. LaRue won some positive press for his debut studio set, 2005's The Red Dirt Album, and he has a strong, emotive voice and some real talent as a songwriter. This live disc was recorded in front of a seemingly well-oiled audience on a Friday night, and he plays for the crowd in a manner that suggests he wanted to make sure the last guy in the back of the room didn't miss anything. LaRue and his band fill their set list with stuff like "Solid Gone" and "One Chord Song," along with a batch of covers that anyone who hangs out in a country or blues club is likely to know by heart. LaRue's bandmembers have solid chops as they stomp through their arrangements, and LaRue swaggers through the show like he's playing in an arena rather than a club. On Live at Billy Bob's Texas, LaRue's blend of blues figures and country-rock arrangements would probably sound best in a crowded bar after you've had four or five beers. [Live at Billy Bob's Texas was also released in a version including a CD with a shorter track listing (11 instead of 15 tracks) and a bonus DVD.]

Buried Gold

I'm from the Midwest, and Nashville country is such crap, the only good county left comes out of Texas, And The Radio stations around here don't play thier stuff. Stoney is the sound I'm looking for. If Willie Nelson and Janis Joplin pooped out a kid, it would be Stoney. It's got the country feel with a rock edge. WHY DON"T I HEAR THIS ON MY RADIO STATION IN MISSOURI??? I think this guy is going to be hugh. I make my friends listen to it, and they all want to get it. just listen to it once, "Oklahoma Breakdown", that song alone is worth the price of the CD. I have got to go down and see this man in concert! Listen up Radio Stations play this.

Stoney is a must have Artist

Once you listen to a Stoney Larue Track,You'll be sold. He has one of the Best Voices you'll Ever Hear. And to see him Live, He pours his heart and soul into every lyric. Genuine One of a kind !!

Omg

I LOVE THIS GUY!!!My sis found him at a bar in College Station!LUV YA!!! xoxo Lexi

Stoney LaRue plays music that combines the rootsy, emotionally honest sound of country with the beer-drinking swagger of heartland rock and a dash of the moody undercurrents of the blues. LaRue was born in Taft, TX, to a musical family — his father played bass in a number of local bands — and he grew up listening to the country and Southern rock that would inform his later work. When he was a teenager, LaRue's family pulled up stakes for Oklahoma, and with time LaRue would become part...
