Welcome Y'all
WELCOME to the home of Honky Tonk Heart, purveyors of "real" country music. We're based in (go figure)
that honky tonk capital of the world, Washington DC.
If you have to ask "Hank who?? You are in the wrong place, listening to the wrong band.
There will be no booty shaking or line dancing to our music. No Shania or Rascal Flatts. There will be maximum tele and steel twang and music that sounds like it came from Willie, Lefty, George and Ray. You'll hear western swing and big band in the style of the Texas Playboys. Stand by for boogie!! Stay home if the occasional bass slap insults your intelligence.....
The Boys
We are:
Bob Adamcik Guitar and Vocals,
Karl Straub Lead Guitar
Howard Parker Pedal Steel Guitar and Vocals
Jimmy Gapinski Drums
"Jose'" Acoustic Bass, Electric Bass
Bob hails from the Republic of Texas and has lived with this music for decades.
Russell hails from Australia and was into blues and rockabilly.
Karl is on of the area's best known songwriters and tele players (so says the Washington Post). Jimmy was into punk and Howard
has spent the last twenty years playing resonator guitar in some of the area's best known bluegrass ensembles. Click on the pictures for a more detailed bio
