“Until Aces Up I was never a fan of country music, but when the people of an iconic rock city like Seattle, love your music, and the clubs promoters are fighting over who books you, you know you’ve got something special. These guys are the real deal”
- Expert Records
“Aces Up breaks down the barriers between country and rock. Undoubtedly a country sound, but one that appeals to even the rowdiest of rockers. So, put on your cowboy hat and KISS t-shirt and get ready...”
