This is one of the coolest new albums that I've run across in quite some time. A Little Farther West is a husband-and-wife duo from Oklahoma who reimagines classic western themes. Their arrangements include an electric guitar, vocals, a continental combo organ, and not much else. Vaya Con Dios contains themes from classic and modern westerns including “The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance” and “The Theme from Magnificent Seven”. If you want to feel like you’re living in a modern spaghetti western for about an hour, this is the album for you. --Clayton Edwards, outsider.com

Tight musicianship and evocative melodies

   Their music has been described as a blend of Western, surf, and rockabilly, with a touch of Americana. They have been praised for their tight musicianship and evocative melodies.
