| | From : | | • Sweden | | Musical Style : | | • Tumbleweed Trail takes its stance from the viewpoint of the song. Carefully constructed melodies and lyrics of great quality are performed and recorded with excellence, all with a firm basis in a thorough adherence to the American music tradition. | | Musical Influences : | | • Too numerous to mention. Some compare the band to the early days of the Eagles. But they are broader than that. | | Brief Description : | | • Tumbleweed Trail has been around since 1995.

If someone can honestly say that after hearing "I Could Do That", that the tune doesn't catch them and stay with them, I think something is wrong with them! ;-) Not only musically, but your lyric writing is great too. It's not just fluff for your music. You write both light and thought provoking lyrics that make you want to pay close attention when listeni | | Add Yourself to the Artists Mailing List |
