MODERN WEST GOT ITS START when my wife (Christine) encouraged me to reconnect
musically with John Coinman.

I wasn’t really sure after all these years how it might work. I wasn’t really
sure what to say. But if life has taught me anything it was not be stopped by
the question or the unknown. F… it, what do I have to lose but maybe some of the
best times of my life?

I made the call to Tucson. “John what do you think?” He never hesitated, willing
to explore the idea. But it was always more than just an idea for me. It was a
feeling that I had been unable to articulate. For a long time now I have felt
the need to connect with people in a more meaningful way than just the
autograph. I have found myself here and around the world in different situations
where the only exchange has been just that…a quick signature on the run usually
followed by a “gee, he’s taller than I thought.”

I always thought that music could build a stronger, more personal moment for me.
It would create the opportunity for a genuine exchange much greater than the
movie, TV interview or magazine. It would be real, full of mistakes and without
apology. But most of all there would be the chance to have some fun. The
question was, would it work? I thought it could but I wasn’t really sure. I had
been out on creative limbs before, and this felt familiar.

I asked John to get some guys together starting with Blair Forward who was in
the first and only band I was ever in. John would pick the rest. If we were to
play together the majority of our music would have to be our own compositions.
What ever else we played would be old favorites of mine. They would come from
friends, some famous and some who probably should be. The rest would be from
artists that I have enjoyed over the years. If we played it would be Live, Loud
and Long. The idea was simple. Don’t stop the party. Everybody understood and
everybody went to work.

Teddy Morgan out of Nashville is our lead guitarist and producer.
Larry Cobb from Tucson keeps the beat.
Park Chisolm on vocals and guitar covers all my mistakes and hails from
Nashville.

Bobby Yang, from Atlanta, and Luke Bulla, from Nashville, burn fiddle for us
when they aren’t killing it with their own bands.
