The Rusty Thomas Band

A close friend of Southern Fried has been making a pretty bad ass album.  Rusty is the lead singer and has more of a Deep Rooted Country back ground with a Red Neck Billy Joel type sound.  Matt Rollins is on the drums and is more of a Classic Rock and Roller with a killer sound that is not to over powering.  Then you have the Delta Blues of Jon Harris coming straight out of Muddy Waters and pickin' and slidin' you into a daze of good tunes.  Every track you will hear a different influence but yet be able to tie them all together with the smile on your face.

The Band decided that they wanted this project to be special and one way for it to take on a new meaning to them is if they were doing it for unselfish reasons.  Camp Twin Lakes is a non-profit origination that provides places and paths for children with serious illnesses and life challenges to experience the joys of childhood and grow in their confidence and capabilities (no, i didn't write that.  that is their mission statement).  Once they were in touch with Camp Twin Lakes the project took on a whole new meaning and the music got even better.
