GET TO KNOW THE PANHANDLERS.
The Panhandlers brings together Josh Abbott, John Baumann, William Clark Green and Cleto Cordero, four writers with separate careers and a shared connection to West Texas. The project is more than a rotating lead-vocal exercise: the songs look at the landscape and its people from complementary angles. Their self-titled debut and Tough Country offer a slower, more spacious counterpoint to the members’ individual band work.
Acoustic country, folk and Western storytelling shape the sound. Four distinct voices are held together by a deliberately natural recording approach and songs rooted in a particular landscape.
