Little Jane and the Pistol Whips (No. 703)

Led by the powerful songwriting of Ashly, Little Jane and the Pistol Whips stylized their sound from both early county and contemporary Americana. With ‘Q’ King roping in some melodic and tight electric guitar licks and fellow rhythm rustlers – Paul and Russ on drums and bass respectively, they herded a strong following of dancers and music fans alike. Initially, the listener may be drawn to a familiar old tune, maybe something from Ernst Tubb or Loretta Lynn. Lean in a little closer and you may hear a bit of Willie, Patsy Cline or even later country music luminaries such as Dwight Yoakam and Gillian Welch. Their original songs can’t be categorized that easily but one thing’s for sure, there’s a bit of something everyone will like.
