Intro Message from K Phillips
Heeeeeeeey yoooou.... (?), (K stares, squinting and perplexed, pretends to know patron) Ok, I can't see who "you" are...but,
One thing I do know is, if you have made it this far, I truly appreciate what you are doing. Thank you. 'K Phillips' is listener supported. We cannot do this without you. We could join a major-label and change our music and our clothes, but we don't like dry-cleaning. We (I) do like sharing our (my) stuff with people who care to listen.
So thank you,
- K
About the Band / Bio
K Phillips is an award-winning songwriter. His performances marry storytelling, prose & southern soul. What people said about Tom Waits, Bruce Springsteen & Leon Russell will be said about this kid. He has many arrows in his quiver but his words,his keys and his voice are deadly from any distance.
Phillips is a West Texas native. He began writing & performing inhigh-school. He is the 2011 Winner of The Bugle Boy ’Best Of’
Songwriter Showcase. K's new album 'American
Girls' will be released in January. The album was recorded live, in 3
days at The Zone, in Dripping Springs. The album includes an all-star
cast of roots musicians, including Bobby Keys of The Rolling Stones,
Jimmy Pettit of Joe Ely, Bukka Allen of Robert Earl Keen and Rick
Richards of Ray Wylie Hubbard.
K is interested in cutting through, and helping people, through his music. He believes that if he tells his story, he tells everyones' story, no matter how crude, strange or lovely the narrative might be.

Sometimes I press record and start throwing ideas around, if you like any of this stuff, let me know and I'll finish it. |
The Last 30 minutes of last weeks show... |

... where we played some unfinished songs and some finished songs to one drunk gentleman. He dug it. There is some vocal distortion. Next week should sound better. We are working out the kinks. Think of this more as a rough draft for next weeks... |
