Calgary, Alberta

Country music has never really been known for its penchant for the grotesque, but then again, country music isn’t often played by the kind of maniacs that make up Cowpuncher. These barn-burning party-starters know how to get kicked out of shitty motels on the prairies, have had more shotgun weddings than you have birthday parties and have, by all scientific measures, replaced all the water in their bodies with Lucky. Twang never sounded so blurry.
