WAGONEERS
Local alt-country/rock band The Wagoneers have their act together. “We are still in the process of working on a full-length record and we should have an EP done in about three weeks,” reports singer/guitarist Harrison Ray. The band recently welcomed drummer Mike Besta (ex-351 Cleveland) and mandolinist Aaron Firetag (currently of Folkgrass) into the lineup, along with a rotation of guests. “Alt-country, Outlaw Country, or whatever you wanna call it,” says Ray. “One more thing — we have absolutely no connection with April Invention, other than the fact that [bassist] Wally Reddington and I played together.” Visit myspace.com/thewagoneers for more.
SEEMS TO ME…

True fans love him as the leader of one of the best rock power trios ever — The James Gang. Tickets are available for $65 (plus applicable fees) at www.ticketmaster.com.
