Raw, but fun, December 3, 2000
I had never heard of Kevin Fowler before seeing him at the Cabaret in Bandera. He has a great sound and puts on a great show. This CD is worth buying if you are a fan of Texana music (or progressive Austin country music as some people unfortunately like to phrase it). Beer, Bait and Ammo is a great song. There are four or five others that are quite good. He brings the typical sense of humor associate with this great musical genre and reminds me of a raw Robert Earl Keen, but closer to Charlie Robison. If you buy this disc, you won't be disappointed.

Independent country is alive and well in Texas, May 5, 2004
A great set of rollicking, uptempo outlaw honkytonk, with sassy, snappy guitar licks worthy of all those fine old Dwight Yoakam albums... Fowler's a youngTexas indiebilly who got a leg-up in the music world through Sammy Kershaw's swell rendition of this album's title track, "Beer, Bait & Ammo" -- as fine a tongue-in-cheek good ole boy anthem as has ever been recorded. There are several tracks of equal caliber on this album, including "Hellbent For A Heartache," "J.O.B.," "100% Texas" and the wistful loser ballad, "Drinkin' Days." Nice stuff, with plenty of boozy pedal steel and pop-a-top sentiments. If you're looking for real, honest, independently produced hard country, check this guy out!

This is how we like it in Texas, January 8, 2002
In Beer, Bait and Ammo, Kevin Fowler takes you all over Texas with his voice. This CD is full of suprises from ballads like "If These Old Walls Could Talk" which can make your heart melt, to good old, rowdy Texas honky tonk tunes like "Hellbent for a Heartache". When I saw The Kevin Fowler Band live I rushed out to find the cd and it is just as good as his live show. I never get tired of listening to this cd. It has lasting power and will always be one of my favorites. So check it out you wont regret it. Texas country music is about to take over so jump on the band wagon while there is still room!!
