With one of the most ferocious beasts known to planet earth, the Jackalope, sitting on top of the speaker stack, two knife wielding nearly naked dancing queens seducing the audience, a heart pounding thunderous female upright bass player, a raccoon-tie wearing maniacal drummer, and wrangling the spectacle together was the one and only king of Vancouver’s dark side, Big John Bates.

With thunderstorms filling the sky and the the haze of darkness looming over the day, the show must go on and it certainly did at the Black Mass Car Show at Grumpy’s Bar and Grill in Roseville, MN.

Gathering a musical conglomeration of the bandit Brady Bunch with a whiskey loving, bong loading cast of outlaw country rebels, Bitch N’ Brown featuring the Bootstraps of Doom have stepped beyond the wall of punk-rock-country and entered a new wave of pure marauding rock from deep within the soul for their new self-titled album.
