For five years Hoedown, a band that gathers together the royalty of Finnish country scene, has drawn crowds to clubs and wonderful guests to join them on stage. Late 2007 they were joined by Tokela, the legendary singer/songwriter of Melrose, and from the first song on it was evident that this combination should be recorded and released asap! January 7th and 8th they recorded the 15 songs on this album live in studio. A delightful package of country, rockabilly and western swing!
