Indiana is not only according to the Department of Homeland Security one of the biggest targets of terrorists (ahead of California clearly), but also the home to alt. country artists Between Two Lions. The guitar swaggers with a swaying hollow-bodied tone that belies a straight-forward Nashville sound. The lyrics are an honest reminder of down-home cookin and gritty bar brawls with a vocalist dipped in cheap whiskey. Stirring songs that will send a shiver up and down your spine, having you forget that whole Wilco trend.
