Some names say it all. You hear it once, and you understand everything. This applies to the band COWBOY SOUL. It sounds like an oxymoron. The two words seem to have nothing in common with each other, at least in the terms of the overall marketing of country and western music. COWBOY SOUL is a band with a sound that get's just about everyone's foot tapping. In an age where arguably the best rapper out there is a white guy from Detroit, MIKE MANN and his band of rockin' cowboys challenge the notion that a country artists are only of the blonde-blue-eyed stock. COWBOYS SOUL has arrived and their message is two-fold; Country Music is for everyone and "Let's have a good time!"

One would think that an all-black country band would be a gimmick in itself, but there are no gimmickes here. It's great music that gonna get everyone excited about hopping onto a pick-up truck, drinking beer, two-stepping and slowdancing 'till dawn.
