Barfly

It all started with hits like Hey Ya or Hot In Herre - 250 gigs and 180.000 sold albums later The BossHoss are an established Top 10 band with golden success in Germany! Any performance of the BossHoss bunch has left girls with tear-filled eyes, the egos of cool guys shining anew, mothers in worry and husbands celebrating the moment with a hump of beer. Most BossHoss fans remember dancing to the songs and later on finding themselves in complete dehydration, drinking their heads off or even making passionate love. 
 

With their Internashville Urban Hymns, The BossHoss proved an excellent talent of playing sweeping reinterpretations and writing just as powerful original compositions. The band always stood for heaps of fun, never brainless partying! That’s because it’s about the Holy Grail, the myth of Rock´ n´ Roll. Then it was time to reload! The band’s second album Rodeo Radio shows the same contagious charm and convincing character as their stunning debut Internashville Urban Hymns. Yet, it is of a different nature. Rodeo Radio contains about as many covered songs as own compositions. Also the choice of originals differs in genres from the debut. Many of the hits chosen are not from the recent, but from a more distant past.
 
To invest more sweat, more blood, more whiskey and more tongue-in-cheek in an album is hardly possible! The BossHoss is a deep bow towards all symbols, conventions and styles in the traditions of Blues, Soul, Country and, of course, Rock´n´Roll. A moving speech thanking the great predecessors of the genre and an outlook giving high hopes into what still lies ahead.
