Tex Perkins Drains The Swamp With A New Fat Rubber Band Song

by Paul Cashmere on October 4, 2021

Tex Perkins and the Fat Rubber Band have flung out a new track ‘Place In The Sun’.

With The Fat Rubber Band, Tex Perkins and Matt Walker revisit Swamp Rock. Swamp Rock is a sound that encompasses acts like Creedence Clearwater Revival, JJ Cale and Tony Joe White. More locally, The Stems, Six Ft Hick and Kim Salmon slide into the category.

Tex has been there before. Beasts of Bourbon had a fair component of Swamp Rock in their make-up.

An album for The Fat Rubber Band is coming on 5 November.
