Hi Don - you sent me a very nice comment here THREE YEARS AGO and I never saw it until now!! Very sorry for that. I hope you are doing well despite the craziness of the world right now, and that you are safe and making music. All my best wishes to you
It's been rude of me to have waited so long to share the good News. In 2016 me and my Band mates the Tramp Iron Railroad were fortunate enough to win Best Live Performance in the Country Category here at IMC. We were so happy to be acknowledged in the category we love best "LIVE MUSIC!!!
This year is going to be different. In June 2016 our Drummer Garth Jacobs passed away unexpectedly. 2 weeks before that I took a bad fall and Broke my Shoulder. The result of these incidents have stopped our Live performing, and we are focused on recording in the Studio for all of 2017/18 to finish what will be our 3rd Album. I posted 3 of the songs that will eventually be on that new album/CD. I hope you'll give a listen!!
FYI...The song "Gravity" that I put on my IMC Playlist was selected in the Folk/Americana/Bluegrass category as "SONG OF THE YEAR" by the Josie Show in Nashville Tennessee. We recieved the Award in September 2016!!
Well...That's about it for now..Please check out our new music and wish us well in the new year... To all the IMC Artists, We wish you Happy Music Making!!! :-))
This is the best news of the Year!!...Our band won the 2015 'BEST LIVE COUNTRY PERFORMANCE for our video from our "Live" show at "Soundwave 2015" in Long Beach ,Ca.

On behalf of myself and the band I just want to say how excitied we are to have one and want to thank Christopher Ewing and all the folks at the Indie Music Channel who put on this smashing event every year with the sole purposes of promoting Indie Artists like ourselves of all Genres. They are the Best!! Again, Thank you very much to IMC and all the friends and Fans who keep Tramp Iron Railroad music Alive!!....Yeeeehaaawwwww!!!!
