What is your favorite thing about being on the road?
Playing music together every day, experiencing new places through travel and band bonding.
What is the worst thing about being on tour?
The Van smells.
Have you ever been to Taos? What made book a show here?
Hank and Erin have been to Taos (1/3 of the cowgirls…). We booked Taos because Hank visited extensively as a youngster when his older brother worked in organic farming with the Llama Foundation. Hank has also played gigs at the Taos Inn with the band Deadman Flats, and has always enjoyed your town. Plus, Erin is a good Taos-visit manifester.
Tom Cruise or Richard Gere?
Richard Gere, hands down.
