Brent Amaker and the Rodeo perform dusty, old fashioned, saddle-sore Country and Western with a winking sense of humor and expressive chops. Recorded in two days on an ancient four-track reel-to-reel tape deck in glorious mono, the Rodeo’s self-titled debut full length has an authentic country sound to go with Brent Amaker’s authentic songs.

“Whiskey, Women, & Wild times. The spirit of true country music lives on through Brent Amaker and the Rodeo. Raise your glass, take a shot, and watch your back. The Rodeo is here, and it’s about time.”
-Troy Nelson, KEXP 90.3FM Seattle.

“[Brent Amaker and the Rodeo] have a distinct, straightforward sound and a consistent look…. Their eponymous debut CD (available now at shows) is single-minded in its musical vision. The Rodeo play old-time country, with clip-clop rhythms underpinning Amaker’s low-register growl. Think ‘Tennessee Flattop Box’ and you’re right on the money.”
-Kurt B. Reighley, the Stranger.

J-Shirt’s second offering is Rosyvelt‘s first: Applied Science. From driving, new-wavy rock on songs like “Farmboy” and “Aurora,” to country-flavored musings on songs like “Sue” and “County Lines,” to the gorgeous balladry of “Dissection,” the bombastic twee of “San Francisco,” and the chamber-orchestral “Dancing by Numbers,” Applied Science is diverse to say the least. The common thread of Jeffrey Henry’s unique vision and unerring sense of melody pulls it all together.
