Band Bio:
Aaron Einhouse: When Aaron Einhouse makes music, he creates with a deep reverence for the world’s greatest storytellers and admiration for the great men who came before him. Einhouse explores life, love and heartache with his fourth studio album It Ain’t Pretty, which is his most imaginative and literary music to date.
But Einhouse comes by his creative process honestly. The family man and father of two is always studying. When he is not with family, onstage or in the studio, he can be found touring the country in a passenger van (named Vaän), listening to audio books and writing songs. The long hours on overnight road trips to the next town on tour serve as Einhouse’s office time. He is also an avid reader who packs Charles Bukowski on hunting trips.
“I like using foreshadowing and twists,” Einhouse says. “When you’re singing a song, you can make people feel things through music that you can’t do when you’re just telling the story.”
Tracked at The Panhandle House in Denton, Texas with Erik Herbst, the 10-song collection opens with the roadhouse scorcher “Dancin’” about balancing family life with a life on the edge. Einhouse co-wrote the country rocker “That’s What You Get” with Johnny Chops Richardson (Randy Rogers Band) about living with bad decisions. “If we all just did what our mama said and learn from our mistakes,” Einhouse says, “we’d all have better lives. But maybe they wouldn’t be quite as interesting. People never learn.”
Einhouse sings about embracing life’s harsher truths in the slide guitar-led title track, which he co-wrote with Hal Ketchum. Einhouse sings, “I’m here to tell you it’s all wrong / I’ve been lied to by fairy tales and songs.” “A huge recurring theme in the record is the duality of life,” Einhouse says. “Love can be wonderful and terrible at the same time. But you’ve got to go through hard times to appreciate the good times. On my previous albums, I don’t think I necessarily really embraced that side of writing. I am at that stage where I want to write whatever feels real.”
The slow-rolling “Like Rock ‘n’ Roll” offers a sexy look at what it feels like to fall in love under the influence of a rock ‘n’ roll lifestyle, while Einhouse gets honest about what it’s like to be married to music in “On and On.”
Einhouse captures heartache and moving on with the honky tonk cheating song “My Susannah,” the unrequited love ballad “Thinking of You” and the closing breakup anthem “I’m Done.” “The Fall of Eli Wilde” is a fictitious mountain man epic that is loosely inspired by a Sam Houston speech and the 1972 western Jeremiah Johnson starring Robert Redford.
The Americana parable “The Richest Man” honors the wisdom Einhouse’s late grandfather shared over lunch at his favorite burger joint Captain Billy Whizbang’s. “We’d walk in there,” he says, “and they all knew him because he ate there every other day. He was always messing around with them. So when he came in smiling, they’d say, ‘Oh, here he is.’ He was a jovial guy and liked to kid around. Those are some of my most vivid memories - sitting there eating with him and talking.”
Einhouse has built a loyal following with his previous releases -- Blue Collar Troubadour, Hello Road and Off the Edge and by touring tirelessly across the country. His new album It Ain’t Pretty is already critically acclaimed in No Depression, Elmore Magazine, AOL, Whiskey Riff, Roughstock and NYC’s Park Bench who claim “It Aint Pretty is a celebration of the gritty reality that makes a musical poet write such songs in the first place. It is a collection of songs that would survive even the driest desert, and might even inspire new life to grow there.”
Guadalupe Pirates: The members of the Guadalupe Pirates came together from all over the state of Texas, bringing together a bit of a Red Dirt sound, a Blues beat, and Rocking lyrics to fashion a true and authentic Texas Country band. The Pirates like to bring their audience a combination of originals such as their rockin' outlaw tune, ‘Way of the Gun,’ or their heart string plucking tune, ‘Cry Me the Colorado River,’ and a few of those popular songs everyone knows and loves. No matter which song The Pirates are playing, you’ll hear the mix of a few cool sounds making for some awesome tunes and you’ll want to stomp your foot, and stay a while, because this group of vagrants puts on one high energy, big as Texas show!
This band consists of a group of seasoned musicians, songwriters, and performers; Branden Benningfield on lead vocals and guitar, Dorothy LaValley on bass, and Willie Dean on drums. The Guadalupe Pirates bring a heart-felt, high energy show every time they step on stage. For a band that was formed in early 2012, they have certainly gained some miles. They have shared the stage with the likes of Kevin Fowler, Phil Hamilton, Six Market Blvd, Cameran Nelson, Cody Canada and the Departed, Deryl Dodd, Shenandoah, Charlie Robison, Flatland Calvary, Bart Crow, Mike and the Moonpies, Uncle Lucius, Shane Smith and the Saints, Stoney Larue, and Shooter Jennings. In the summer of 2014 they were a part of the “Urban Cowboy Reunion” tour which featured Mickey Gilley and Johnny Lee. They have charted two singles on the Texas Regional Radio Charts and produced their EP, titled “Way of the Gun”, which is currently available for purchase on several websites and here on this website under the 'Shop' tab.
This band brings a variety of sounds to the stage. You can rock out to this band. You can two-step to this band. You can laugh. You can cry. But you'll always be tapping your foot, and before you know it, you will be singing along with the catchy tunes and begging for more! Thus far, there has not been one venue the Pirates have played where they were not immediately invited to come back and play again. You just can’t get enough of ‘em!!
