The Boxmasters - The Boxmasters

"Electric hillbilly music is probably the best description of The Boxmasters. But the real idea behind The Boxmasters was both musically and in live performance, it was like watching a combination of 60's television shows like Dean Martin, Johnny Cash Show, all those variety shows, with electric hillbilly music – it's a great blend." – Billy Bob Thornton

What do you get when you take the influence of the Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Kinks and the Animals and then combine them with Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, Buck Owens, Roy Acuff and Hank Williams? It could only be The Boxmasters. Fashioned after a 1960's-era mod band, The Boxmasters were founded by W.R. "Bud" Thornton and Grammy-winning engineer/guitarist J.D. Andrew.
