Some might call it traditional. Others would say it's roots country, or even Americana. Call it whatever you like, but "Rye Whiskey Why" is a collection of songs about life. Be it real love or lost love, hard times and second chances, cheating and lying, or drinking and dying. Mike writes about the moments that warm our hearts and dry our tears...........and brings us down to earth with songs about the familiar and unavoidable truths of life – sorrow, heartache and pain. Real life stuff this is! Recorded in Burleson, Texas at Patriot Recording Studios with some of the finest Texas players imaginable. Two time Grammy award recipient Chris Booher - keyboard/fiddle, Gary Carpenter - pedal steel/dobro, Derek Spigener - drums, John Sharp - background vocals, Reggie Rouffer - fiddle, Tommy Nash - electric/acoustic guitar, Ron Jones - bass/acoustic guitar/dobro, Randy Elmore - Mandolin, Stefani Little - background vocals, Jai Hutcherson - studio engineer. How do you sum it all up? Well, this is REAL COUNTRY MUSIC – in its purest form – the way it was meant to be. Pull up an ear and have a listen.
