Levee Town

Pages of Paperwork is the fifth installment in Levee Town's catalog.  With a sound built on years of constant performing and songwriting, the band has created a hard-driving, smoothly-polished, soulful record.  Pages of Paperwork exhibits a maturity and sophistication borne of heartbreak and the joy of personal resurgence.  Songwriters Hudspeth, Garoutte, and Meade share a convergent vision of the world-at-large and craft their individual tunes in a similar vein.  The band chugs along with astonishing energy and focus.  Vocally, Levee Town is obviously comfortable performing an ever-widening array of styles.  From rocking shuffles to grinding slow blues to North-Mississippi-style rockers to KC swing numbers, Pages Of Paperwork is an exhilarating breath of fresh air and a joy to take in.

Adam Hagerman is the new member of LT. He is a great addition to the line up, a BEAST of a drummer. He has toured extensively Hadden Sayers, Wes Jeans,Smokin' Joe Kubek & Benios King and Anthony Gomes, just to name a few. More on him will come later. We are very excited about having him on the team

Jacque Garoutte multi-instrumentalist arranger and producer fills in the bass with years of musical experience. From Miami Oklahoma, Jacque lays down a deep strong bass line, supplies quite bit of energy onstage, and sings with a smooth single malt voice.

From ChicagoJimmie Meade plays the harmonica like a man possessed by...angels and demons alike. He will make you smile as he jumps and jives during his intense harp and vocal renditions of Dylan and Waters.

While growing up in central OklahomaBrandon Hudspeth saw Johnny Cash on Sesame Street and had to start pickin' on guitars. As he sings, he rings the neck of his wide body Gibson like its a Flying Vee dipped in gasoline.

These guys are blazing hot! They will cause you to stomp your feet, clap your hands, and maybe dance on the tables. Levee Town generates a lot of excitement and a smokin' good time. For your own protection, you better wear a fire suit!
