A celebration of rock and roots with Seattle’s Billy Joe Huels and The Dusty 45s is unleashed in this recent 2007 live recording. In an era of overproduced studio recordings, this quartet has delivered a work that is fresh and tight with a classic Americana sound. The 6 original and 4 cover tunes were selected to best give the listener the real sense of being at a Dusty 45s’ performance. From the opening mariachi trumpet to the fiery surf guitar finale, you will enjoy this journey through Dustyland. Billy Joe Huels and his comrades have developed their unique sound through over 10 years live performances and touring throughout the U.S. They have garnered much critical praise and sold over 30,000 units. They were also voted best of Seattle by Seattle Weekly readers 3 years in a row. This purely live recording was made at the Columbia City Theatre in Seattle on June 17th, 2007 in front of a live audience. The recording was the first produced solely by Huels, a singer/songwriter and actor who recently starred as Buddy Holly at Seattle’s 5th Avenue Theatre.
