Last month Uncle Lucius released Live from Ear Studio. Recorded live to tape at Ear Studio in Austin, TX the record features select singles from their latest LP Like It's The Last One Left plus three covers: "Bertha" by the Grateful Dead; "Shadow People," a Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers staple and "Just To Satisfy You" made popular by Waylon Jennings & Willie Nelson.
Uncle Lucius has long been known for their unique blend of roots rock & roll and country soul. Since adding heavyweights Doug Strahan (guitar) and Drew Scherger (bass) to the fold, the band has expanded its palette, exploring new musical landscapes and reveling in the power that comes from following sonic avenues, without prejudice, wherever they lead. The results onstage speak for themselves.
During the years following the band's farewell tour in 2018, their audience continued to organically grow, highlighted by the placement of their song "Keep the Wolves Away" in an episode of Yellowstone and its subsequent RIAA gold and platinum certifications. After a few years on hiatus — with a fresh outlook and a deep well of new ideas — the band members began to shake off their collective rust and blueprint songs that mirrored their career and current status, hitting on themes of resolve and resilience. The band released their first album in 8 years Like It's The Last One Left last December via Thirty Tigers / Boo Clap Records. Since their comeback the band has toured consistently around the world and recently the 2nd single from Like It's The Last One Left, "All The Angelenos," hit #5 on the Texas Radio Charts.
COLE PHILLIPS
Start time: 08:00 PM
Cole Phillips humbly refers to himself as “a kid from Oklahoma.” However, that barely scratches the surface. The 18-year-old singer, songwriter, and guitarist tells the kind of stories that cut right to the core. Over bare country instrumentation, his vocals resound at levels of pain, experience, and wisdom that far belie his age. Growing up, he discovered Hank Williams, JR. and David Allan Coe through his father and Dierks Bentley and Zac Brown Band via his mother. Eventually, he embraced Metallica, Nirvana, and AC/DC as well as red dirt favorites such as Zach Bryan and Cody Jinks on his own. His parents divorced and remarried, expanding the family and making Cole “the oldest of eight kids.” In high school, he picked up a guitar to learn Zac Brown songs. Around the same time, he endured the claustrophobia of smalltown life with the only potential out being a future welding on oil rig somewhere far away. In the haze of a hangover, he penned what would become his breakthrough track “Drinking Alone.” The single highlights his gritty right-from-the-gut delivery and straight-from the-heart songcraft. It went from being his “class song” to organically exploding on TikTok with millions of views. In 2024, the success translated to DSPs with 25 million streams and over 4 million YouTube views. Meanwhile, he inked a deal with RECORDS, LLC. Now, he chronicles where he’s from and where he’s going on a series of singles such as “Midnight Train” and “No Town” for RECORDS, LLC and an album to come.
