About this album

  • Updated: 22/06/2010

UNAMERICAN is the second full lenght album from Fayetteville, Arkansas, USA based acoutic/punk string band Cletus Got Shot.  The band is hard at work, performing a
unique mix of working class protest songs and intense social commentary. But don't worry, in this revolution, you can dance.

Started around a bottle of whiskey in the summer of 2007, Arkansas-based Cletus Got Shot has been growing and polishing their sound at hundreds of shows around the Midwest. With a passionate songs ranging from slow burning emotional intensity to raging calls to action, Cletus Got Shot has been bridging the gap between folk protest songs and punk rock rebellion.

Cletus Got Shot is a four piece band consisting of Adam Cox on guitar, Nathan Miller on mandolin, Richard Hartrick on fiddle, and Mark Landry on the home-made gas tank bass. Each member sings, and Adam and Nathan wrote all of the album songs, and are occasionally known to cover a surprisingly varied selection of songs; including gospel, country, and classic union organizing songs.

The raw energy of Cletus Got Shot performing live is truly a sight to behold. This may look like bluegrass, but it sounds like nothing you've ever heard... yet

I really enjoyed this a whole lot, what with the really interesting, compelling, fascinating,thought provoking, lyrics on some tracks. And the perfect strong, infectious, male vocals, that really blends well into each and every track heard. And the great music, that is upbeat, catchy, and cool to my ears.
