Honky Tonk Confidential

It's not often you'll find a computer programmer, librarian, and producer/writer for a major television network performing traditional country songs, but that's exactly what Honky Tonk Confidential is all about. Based in the Washington, D.C., area, this collection of musicians has performed in everything from punk and new wave groups, to having shared the stage with Webb Pierce and Mac Wiseman. In 1998, the group performed in various areas around Washington before putting its music to tape. In 1999, the group released its debut self-titled album. Critics welcomed the album as a fresh face on the traditional country honky tonk scene. In 2001, the group returned to the studio to record Your Trailer or Mine?, which received local awards and high praise from national and international music publications.
