THE TOMMY TALTON BAND
Tommy Talton was a founding member of 70s Capricorn Records group Cowboy. While in Macon, GA through most of the 70s, Tommy was a studio musician recording with artists such as Bonnie Bramlett, Martin Mull, Corky Lang (West, Bruce and Lang, Mountain), Gregg Allman, Dickey Betts, Clarence Carter, country legend Kitty Wells, Alex and Livingston Taylor, Arthur Conley of Sweet Soul Music fame, and more. He toured extensively throughout the U.S. with Cowboy and with the Gregg Allman tour, from Carnegie Hall (as special guests) to Fillmore West in San Francisco and most cities in between. Tommy was also the guitarist on Gregg Allman?s ?Laid Back? album. Tommy lived and toured in Europe throughout the 90s and formed a group there, called The Rebelizers, with members of Albert Lee?s band, Hogan?s Heroes. Tommy is now joined by three talented, creative musicians from the southeast (Tallahassee, Birmingham and Atlanta). Tommy Talton?s highly anticipated new CD, Tommy Talton in Europe, was released on Hittin? the Note Records on May 12, 2008. The Tommy Talton Band is currently touring the US in support of the new release.

ATLANTA, GA. Hittin? the Note Records announces a May 12, 2008 release date for Tommy Talton in Europe, Someone Else?s Shoes, the highly anticipated new CD from Tommy Talton, founding member of legendary Capricorn Records group, Cowboy, and guitarist on the Gregg Allman Tour with Cowboy and Gregg Allman?s ?Laid Back? album.
Tommy Talton has taken the southern music scene by storm in recent years with a new band, a new determination and exceptional new music. The work that Talton did with Scott Boyer and Cowboy, Gregg Allman, Johnny Sandlin and Bill Stewart, and the Capricorn Rhythm Section is well known and widely appreciated, but the music he has written in the past fifteen years has gone virtually unheard until now.
Tommy Talton in Europe, Someone Else?s Shows is a collection of music from the Rebelizers, a group Talton formed with members of Albert Lee?s band, during his stay in Europe in the nineties, as well as recordings with the new band he formed in 2006, the Tommy Talton Band. The album features 13 previously unreleased tracks, 8 of which were recorded in 1995 in the small village of Schifflange, in the south of Luxembourg during Tommy?s stint in Europe. All of the tracks were penned by Talton, with the exception of Talton?s blazing version of the Bobby Charles? ?How Come People Act Like That??.
From the opening number, ?Restless,? to the closer, ?Broken Pieces,? (an acoustic masterpiece by Talton) the CD is chockfull of lyrics and melodies as only Talton can deliver. The title track, ?Someone Else?s Shoes,? is a bluesy, jazzy tune reminiscent of the great music permeating from smoke-filled underground clubs of days gone by. While Talton?s years with Cowboy can be heard in R&B influenced ?Baby I?m on Your Side? and ?Wake Up Ready,? these songs show Talton?s growth and ever evolving musical journey. The CD showcases not only Talton?s classic slide and guitar work, but his distinctive vocals, and passionate songwriting. Talton?s music is timeless, as is evidenced by this new release and the wide age range of audiences at his live performances.
?Throughout this CD, Talton delivers a cool, genuine old school aura that is both natural and refreshing. Talton does his own thing in his own way and at his own pace; which has been this old Cowboy?s stock-and-trade all along." ? Bill Thames, Hittin? the Note Magazine
Details are forthcoming on an upcoming tour in support of the new release. Visit www.tommytaltonband.com for tour dates and info. CD available at www.hittinthenote.com and coming soon to retail stores.
