Cowboy Mouth w/ Ingram Hill

Cowboy Mouth is New Orleans rock n' roll. Annually presenting roughly 200 shows per year, releasing nearly a dozen records, and featured on TV shows and radio stations
everywhere, Cowboy Mouth has been seen and heard by millions of fans worldwide. For more than 15 years, the members of Cowboy Mouth have preached and shouted at the top
of their lungs the joys of being alive and the joys of being in and from New Orleans,sharing a slice of Mardi Gras heaven with fans around the world. As frontman Fred
LeBlanc said, "If The Neville Brothers and The Clash had a baby, it would be Cowboy Mouth."
Always on the road, they've toured several times with their friends in Hootie and the Blowfish, BareNaked Ladies,
Sister Hazel and Better Then Ezra. Crowd participation is a must at a Cowboy Mouth show. Led by Fred's larger-than-life
presence, the band's performances are high-energy and extraordinarily intense, usually leaving audiences as drenched and spent as the band. Cowboy Mouth fans range from
ages five to age eighty-five, but they have one thing in common - as Fred confides to the audience, "Cowboy Mouth is about pretending that you're five years old, naked as a
jaybird and about to turn the hose on your parents, and there's not a damn thing they can do about it."
A Cowboy Mouth show is always full of surprises, and have included guest appearances from Steve Van Zandt, Rob Thomas, John Popper, Art Neville, Johnnie Johnson (Chuck
Berry's piano player), Kyle Turley, and Tom Arnold (Best Damn Sports Show), to name a few. Their audience stretches from the festivals and colleges to the clubs and theaters
they headline around the country.

The band is led by Fred LeBlanc, Cowboy Mouth's maniacal drummer/lead singer (think the Tasmanian Devil playing drums like Keith Moon with a voice like Bo Diddley) and
John Thomas Griffith on lead vocals and lead guitar. Fred came to Cowboy Mouth after four years with the southern punk band Dash Rip Rock. Also an accomplished producer,
Fred mixed the band's first two studio recordings and also earned a gold record for producing Deadeye Dick hit song from the movie Dumb And Dumber, "New Age Girl."
Griffith, (the Griff) had been friends with Fred for years before the two talked about forming Cowboy Mouth together along with two local New Orleans musicians. As the
lead singer of '80s band, The Red Rockers, Griff had a top-selling album on Columbia Records. Their hit song "China" was one of the first hits on MTV, and is still played on the radio today. Griff has opened on tour with bands like The Go-Gos and U2, and was recently inducted into the Texas Guitar Players' Hall of Fame. The band's rhythm guitarist Jonathan "JP" Pretus cut his musical teeth in clubs and bars in and around New Orleans and Baton Rouge for the better part of the last 10 years. Bassist Regina Zernay, formerly of Dreamworks/Megatronic band Halfcocked, was fronting her own band, Méchant, when she met Cowboy Mouth. She's played and recorded with over a half
dozen local Southern California bands, including Big Violin (whose music was featured on The Real World), Red Delicious, and Jam Balaya (musical guests on two episodes of
the TV show Half & Half).
Cowboy Mouth has just released a brand new CD, called "Fearless". The CD includes some of the bands most popular live songs including "Anything", "Disconnected", "Belly" and "Tell the Girl Ur Sorry" of which some earlier, unfinished versions were available on the band's recent live DVD, "The name of the band is Cowboy Mouth".
