OVERVIEW The release of BLACK COWGIRL s self-titled debut
finds immediate attention with an already curious audience.
Recent performers on The Artie Lange Show (DirectTV/SiriusXM
Radio), the Lancaster-based band delivers a smoking and highly
memorable platter of rock n roll.


The 12-song, self-titled recording, produced by the band and
mixed by Rich Gavalis, includes the band s rendition of Rory
Gallagher s I m Not Awake Yet. Vocalist/guitarist Ben McGuire
notes, it is one of our favorite Rory songs. We have talked
about recording it for a while because we felt like it fit in with
our others songs pretty well. There is just something about the
sad, desperate, lonely feeling he captures in some of his low-key
songs that strikes a chord with what we are trying to do.


Originally conceived as a one-man, instrumental project by
McGuire, BLACK COWGIRL s current incarnation took shape in
2008. Guitarist Nathan Rosenzweig, bassist Chris Casse, and
drummer Mark Hanna with McGuire, initially united their talents
to record six songs. Recorded quickly, three days in fact, the
band immediately set out on tour supporting local heros CKY.
Drummer Jess Margera was immediately impress by the band.
BLACK COWGIRL kicks ass, he says. The band combines all
the best elements of classic rock, groove rock, and even some
prog at times. Since that maiden tour, BLACK COWGIRL has
shared the stage with Graveyard, The Company Band, Radio
Moscow, Karma To Burn, Black Tusk, Monstro, and many others.
