16 Horsepower - Clogger


A new day and it's Tuesday, it has been a day full of activities, job wise. Something that is perfect on a day when there is a little hustle and bustle, is 16 Horsepower, with their alternative country rock, make you swing a little extra between all movements.





Todays tune ”Clogger” is taken from the bands third full-length studio album "Secret South". Released in 2000, the album marked a distinct change in direction compared to previous efforts as it focuses more on storytelling over a more laid back soundscape. Enjoy!



Blue-Highways
The Ultimate Americana Music Fest
Vredenburg, Utrecht (NL), 18 March 2000


Starting in the late afternoon 15 Americana bands performed in the two auditoriums of the Vredenburg Music Centre.

16 Horsepower was one of those bands, but didn't seem to fit in with all other country and hillbilly (Ben:"... for weddings and parties.") music. Could that also be read on David's face? After Black Soul Choir, David was the first one to leave the stage. He didn't feel like playing Strong Man.
