Tarheel Boogie

David Weiss, Time Out New York, August 17, 2000
...the clincher is Nation’s smoothly expressive singing, which holds so much love that even his sad songs wind up sounding a tiny bit joyous.

Product Description
Raised in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina before settling in New York City, Jimmy Nations debuts his combo on his first Rubric Records release, Tarheel Boogie.

The Jimmy Nations Combo are Western Swing, pure and simple. Jimmy's material is mostly original drawing from his roots--bluegrass, country and blues. He is also versatile on covers as can be heard on his rendition of Wynn Stewart's "Wishful Thinking".

The album is produced by Byron McCay (writer of "Stool Hanging Drunk" and producer of The Backsliders and Two Dollar Pistols, among others). Tarheel Boogie was recorded at JAG Studios in Raleigh, NC and Excello in Brooklyn, NY. Guest appearance from Steve Earle's new guitarist, Eric "Roscoe" Ambel on acoustic guitar.

most slamming band East of the Hudson River.......2004-01-10

We just heard this band new year's eve at Lilly's nightclub in Brooklyn's Red Hook section. Although not a particular fan of either Rockabilly, Country or Western Swing their high powered mix of all of the above made us dance until six in the morning. Ordered the CD. Loved it.
