Live from Capitol Hall : The Dimestore Cowboys

Influenced by bands like Drive-By Truckers, Sturgill Simpson, and Dwight Yoakam,

Dimestore's unique style fuses powerful vocals with hard-driving instrumentation, creating a

traditional country sound with a not-so-traditional attitude. Fans praise the band for their

soulful lyrics, centered around the struggles of living in the rural south and the ever-present

pain of heartbreak, as well as their dynamic musicianship. The Dimestore Cowboys have

performed over 300 shows, released 4 albums, including their latest, Let's Try This Again, and

show no signs of slowing down.

What began as a group of friends playing in dive bars and crooning in local watering holes, then

called JB 5n Dime, has transformed over the last fifteen years, mirroring the energy and styles of

its members. The Dimestore Cowboys pull no punches when it comes to delivering fine

showmanship and quality sound. Currently, the band is led by vocalist/guitarist Anthony Childress,

who co-writes their music with Will Cassell and the only remaining founding member, bassist Jason

Shaffer. Jason Vapor on keys, Will Cassell on lead guitar, Julia Wilson on fiddle, and Adilene

Delgado on drums fill out the country sound with plenty of heavier licks, deep roots, and

meaningful solos that add complexity to the already thoughtful lyrics of their music.

"... The Dimestore Cowboys out of Johnson City, Tennessee have that blue-collar, local honky tonk

feel to them, imbuing the band with the authenticity that results in international appeal for those

who know what country music is supposed to sound like, and be about. These are real songs from

real folks, a little rough around the edges, but bolstered by brutal honesty, and a mastery of twang

and the Outlaw country half beat." -Saving Country Music/ Trigger.
