Community Concert: The Bootstrap Boys

This is country music, just like we know how to make it. it comes from days of hard work, nights in the honky-tonk, and mornings in the church. the songs have a distinct flavor of the workin’ man, folks with dirt on their hands, good times, bad times, drinkin’, druggin’, lovin’, livin’ on the road, and what a friend we have in Jesus.

we try to feel our roots all the way down in the earth and draw up the sound that country music has always been. it’s not broke, so we’re not trying to fix it and, hell, there’s plenty of room in the world for more of that sweet country sound.

we come by way of grand rapids, Michigan so there’s a northern flavor to our tunes that might take you by surprise if you’ve never played country music for the black bears on the Keweenaw peninsula or sang your way to the middle lake Michigan en route to a wild and magical island like we have.
