| COWBOY TROY Live at GRAHAM'S - Wednesday January 14thWed, 07 Jan 2009 22:28:47 -0800 by kuntryetiquetteAnother Rodeo Production & Kuntry Etiquette Entertainment presents Cowboy Troy Performing Live at Grahams w/ Steve Brack & Stage County When you're six feet, five inches tall you stand out. Add a cowboy hat and you stand out even more. Then, make the subject from Texas with darker than average skin and there's no question that Cowboy Troy (AKA Troy Coleman) isn't exactly an average guy. Yet while Troy may revel in being instantly identifiable from the rank and file in many ways, he also feels that his music shouldn't be deemed something outrageous, gimmicky, or bizarre. "I grew up listening to a mix of country music, rap and rock, with a little bit of funk and pop," Coleman says. "That didn't make me unusual back home (Dallas, Texas). Whenever I would go into the honky-tonks and they put on Run-DMC or Sir Mix-A-Lot, the floor would be packed with the cowboy hats swaying and people having a good time dancing. So it didn't seem like that big a deal for me once I decided to try music that all these things would converge in my music." Mix in like-minded co-producer John Rich (AKA J. MONEY of the multi-platinum duo BIG & RICH) and this convergence really starts to make sense. "John was one of the first people in the business that understood how natural what I was doing really was and that it wasn't an act, just a natural extension of myself and my musical influences". Yet it's precisely that different blend, a convergence of country, rap and rock that Troy dubbed "hick-hop," that's still causing quite a stir throughout the country music world. Two years ago, when Cowboy Troy's Warner Bros./Raybaw debut, Loco Motive, debuted at number two on the Billboard Country Albums chart, the industry could not deny that something unique was going on. Despite minimal (to put it mildly) country radio support (the lead single, "I Play Chicken With The Train," peaked at number 48 on the charts), the song managed to become the number one country download at the iTunes music store. The little Loco Motive that could has since gone on to sell some 342,000 copies. Native Oklahomans Steve Brack & Stage County will be the opening act for Cowboy Troy. Kentucky Headhunters, Wade Bowen, Hank Williams III, Hank Thompson, Luven Brothers, No Justice, Red Dirt Drifters, Jackson Taylor, Chris LeDoux, Great Divide, Mark Chesnutt, Blackhawk, Joan Jet, Tesla Joe Settlemires, Robert Earl Keen and the names go on and on are just a few of the Artist/Entertainers, Steve Brack & Stage County have performed with.
