Caddle. High Powered Alt Country. Southern Rock. County Rock. Blue Collar Music.
Mixing gasoline and nitro would make a pretty
impressive explosion, though nothing like the high
powered alt-country performance from these blue
collar boys from Birmingham. Described as "dixie
fried roots rock with a dash of punk," Caddle draws
on classic country and bluegrass influences, then
supercharges them with hard driving rock n' roll with
an attitude.

Review of Mucklewain - Steve's Myspace Blog
Before I went to the Songwriters' "Tent", I caught sets by Caddle (the one Birmingham, AL, entry of the day) and
Glossary. Caddle simply ROCKED! Their mix of Southern Country-Rock-Boogie recalls the fun that Jason & the
Scorchers used to bring to the stage in their day (which I hope, is not over!). Even as Caddle finished their set, a
woman who was standing next to my buddy and I (and apparaently seeing the band for the first time) turned and
exclaimed, "Were they not amazing?!" Frontman Phillip Hyde, imo, has the perfect stage presence...active (and
interactive) without looking like he's trying to hard. The guy exudes "Cool"; but never takes himself too seriously; as
evidence by his frank, and often-times hilarious, stage banter. The other four members play like the
constantly-touring band that they are; with bassist Chris Pottratz getting my vote for "Best Rock
Performance--Bassist" of the day. To check out Steve's full blog / review of Mucklewain click here.

Re-birthday of Alabama Line Showcasing Nashvegas
Re-birthday of Alabama Line Showcasing Nashvegas
Caddle went to Nashville last week to play at the re-birthday of Alabama Line. The guys at Xaust media put this on
and it's turning into quite a little fandango for the Nashville scene. So Tim and Curt invited us to play the first of
hopefully many more to come last Thursday Aug 3. We had some meetings to attend early in the afternoon across the
street from the bar and were able to get in on all the pre-party festivities. Of course, that meant we started drinkin
about 4pm and weren't scheduled to play till 10pm. That turned into a 200 dollar tab quite quickly. Full Story
After show....refused entrance to nudie bar, the band following us in their van got pulled over, went to printers alley drank buckets
of beer, Drew sang, "Wishing Well" in the karaoke bar, loaded up the van, back in Birmingham 8 am.
