This is a talented and humorous musical group specializing in what Syd refers to as Vintage Western Cowboy Swing! Recently they received the 2004 “Best Humorous Song” award for the track “My Dog,” as well as the 2003 “Country Song of the Year” MIC Award for Syd’s original tune, “Out In The Country.” Other accomplishments include winning the Western Music Association “Best Western Swing Band” international nomination during each of the last three years, as well as wrangling in the New Mexico Music Industry’s “Best Vocal Performance” award for singing and yodeling on recorded works. The boys can also be seen on television and on posters throughout the West as the new “Singing Cowboys” for the Powerball Lottery advertising campaign. Alibi Music magazine named “Cowboys on the Moon” one of it’s top ten best albums for 2003. This CD, which was nominated for best album by The Western Music Association, The Academy of Western Artists, and the New Mexico Music Industry, features all original music and is played on the air in at least 15 countries around the world!
