A cult favorite with national reach, he\u2019s performed and recorded alongside Grammy winners and graced legendary stages including the Ryman Auditorium, Bonnaroo, and Red Rocks. His sound blends \u201970s guitar rock, honky-tonk, and punk, all filtered through an unmistakably hillbilly sensibility.<\/p>\n<p>Sharing the stage is his silent yet thunderous partner, Honey, whose powerhouse drumming\u2014and signature curlers-and-muu-muu style\u2014keep both the band and audience in line. Together, Laid Back and Honey attract fans from across the spectrum: rockabilly diehards, punk and metal enthusiasts, and traditional country and rock-and-roll purists. Their music is regularly featured on SiriusXM Outlaw Country, and their live show is unlike anything else on the road today\u2014rejecting the modern for the surreal in the best possible way.<\/p>\n<p>Even Johnny Knoxville calls Laid Back Country Picker his \u201cfavorite new band.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><i>Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
