Albums

Holy Moly’s unique instrumentation of acoustic guitar, pedal steel, thundering upright bass, and driving drums combine with storytelling lyrics about zombies, one legged adulterers, and all the alcohol and drugs a healthy young person can handle.

Holy Moly's cowpunk-ish Drinkin', Druggin' & Lovin', a collection of straight-shooting barnyard stompers, and winner of the Fort Worth Weekly 2009 Album of the Year Awards.

Thundering upright bass, honkey tonk vocals, and drunk story-telling lyrics. Holy Moly sounds as cowpunk as ever,  despite the beer-guzzling lyrics.

The album opens with a ringing triangle over which frontman Joe Rose, in his inimitable semi-yodel, sings, "Come and get it!" Most of the songs are uptempo shuffles, skipping happily and giddily -- and somewhat drunkenly -- over Rose's charming, often hilarious tales of growing up tough, growing old with the bottle, and relationships gone wrong -- or right.

Joe Rose's stinging vocals slice right through the stomping rhythm section on “Saturday Night,” the lead track from Grasshopper Cowpunk , the fourth full-length album by Fort Worth's cowpunk quartet Holy Moly. A little later, Rose rides the sauntering beat of “The Moustache Song,” one of Holy Moly's quirkier numbers. By the time Grasshopper Cowpunk has run its course, Rose and company have given us odes to honky-tonks, moonshine, sombreros, roses and of course cheating. It's all in a day's work for a punky country-rock band.  Winner of the Fort Worth Weekly 2012 Album of the Year and Song of the Year (the Mustache Song)
