Why This CD Matters
Better Luck Is A Barroom Away is the debut album from Vermont’s Starline Rhythm Boys, combining traditional honky-tonk, rockabilly, country boogie, and western swing. Produced by Sean Mencher of High Noon, the album helped establish the group’s vintage country sound and includes sixteen original songs and carefully selected covers. Its live, analog-recorded approach reflects the band’s commitment to classic country performance and production.
