  1. SteveKristi (verified owner)

    The Cowgirl’s Dream project was born in 2014 on the occasion of the recording of a disc by Kristi Nebel, a singer from the Pacific Northwest deeply linked to country & western sounds, in which her husband Steve Nebel, appreciated guitarist and author, Toby Hanson a passionate pianist and accordionist participated western swing and Mike Friel, drummer often involved in the jazz scene in Tacoma, Washington. The quartet in question offers skillfully and competently a mix of country music and western swing with western colors, combining covers and originals celebrating tradition with respect and sagacity. Certainly nothing particularly new is added, everything is within the confines of a pleasant ‘already heard’ but it is in the sincerity of the proposal, in the brilliant reinterpretation of timeless classics and in the compositional vein of Steve Nebel if we can consider this album successful. Fans will not need presentations for songs like “Jambalaya” and “You Win Again”, classics from the repertoire of Hank Williams, Sr. or for “Take Me Back To Tulsa” by Bob Wills, “Truck Drivin ‘Man” by Terry Fell (redone over the years by dozens of country artists), “Oklahoma Hills” by Woody Guthrie and “Deep Water” by Fred Rose, all reinterpreted with extreme rigor, paying homage to deeply loved authors. Rather we could dwell on the classic country song “The Stranger”, on the rock “Everybody Gotta Hurt”, on the country waltz “Beer, Beautiful Beer”, on the heartfelt “Go Out To Alberta” with the accordion of Toby Hanson, the great protagonist and on “My Home In Washington” to emphasize the skills of author of Steve Nebel who alternates in the vocal parts to Kristi Nebel. An honest and artisanal disc, definitely free of additives and artificial flavors. (Remo Ricaldone)
