One particularly well-known instance was on a late-night jam session aboard the 19th annual Delbert McClinton's Sandy Beaches Cruise. There, Lukas and his band, Promise of the Real, delivered a soulful rendition of "Always on My Mind"
Musician, and songwriter Charlie Overbey, of whom rock icon Lemmy (Motörhead), coined as the “Punk Rock Spy In The House Of Honky Tonk" has released his single “Champagne, Cocaine, Cadillacs & Cash.” The guitar and keys southern rock-tinged romp features Marcus King on Electric Guitars, B3 Organ, and vocals, with additional vocals from Jaime Wyatt. The song is the first single from Overbey’s forthcoming album In Good Company, due out on July 26.
Gov’t Mule, in the midst of its 13-stop, Thirty Years Strong tour of the West, and Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real, on its opening winter/spring tour stop, both touched down on February 16 for a massive, and splendid, night of music at The Venue at Thunder Valley Casino Resort, just north of Sacramento.
