"Ramshackle alt-country meets freak folk in Nile Robinson & The Countrymen. Imagine if Jeff Tweedy, Bob Dylan and Daniel Johnston started a wonky lo-fi side project- we’re here for it. Big FFO: Kurt Vile, Alex G, The Tallest Man On Earth, Diane Cluck, Michael Hurley."

After a 2-month hiatus 'yond the sands of the Kalahari, you may have found yourself wondering "Gee, where are The Countrymen?". Well, darlin' we've been away but we came back just for you. And we return with newly recorded material. Prayer No.2 - our brand new debut single - will be released and performed for the very first time at Cafe Kino! listen to it everywhere on Friday 17th
Tied in with the best Folk duo I can name within city limits, it's guaranteed to be a Rock 'Em , Sock 'Em type programme. Dharma Burns will fuckk you up man and I mean it. Borderline guaranteed to have you askin questions like 'Who the hell is Stuntman Mike!?' when really the answer is very simple, you just haven't thought of it in a while.
And as if this could never be enough, this Saturday is the only time so far in history you'll be able to see the unlikely cross-over episode the Bristol Country Scene said could "never happen" as The Countrymen & Dharma Burns put aside all the killings and bad blood to unite in one brawling, sprawling, explosive plainsong of camaraderie. Goodbye memories, hello T-R-O-U-B-L-E!
Come by for some Cowboy Wisdom, some hot Guitar-Pickin' & Do Not miss yo' opportunity to get your hands on a 1/20 locally-handprinted Countrymen t-shirt!
What do you have to lose babe? worst thing you could end up as is a Victim of the Truth and in any event - there's no such thing
