If you take the wild abandon, freedom and exhilaration of the cowboy lifestyle and combine that with the surging power of a giant Pacific wave--what some surfers fondly call ''the Crush''-- you get Nashville's most unique band ever: COWBOY CRUSH. Cowboy
Cowboy Crush is the current all-girl Nashville phenomenon whose attention-getting music is a life-affirming, fist-in-the-air celebration that has generated an exploding popularity nationwide, with songs that seem torn from pages of their fans' daily lives.
The group, comprised of lead singer Trenna Barnes, bass player Debbie Johnson and fiddler Renae Truex, brings an eye-catching mix of high energy, jaw-dropping talent and irrepressible femininity that are captivating audiences across the country. At their uptempo best, with songs like "Hillbilly Nation" ("Our stage show in a song," says Trenna) and "Miss Difficult," this is a trio that's nothing less than espresso in an iced tea world -- an instant jump-start -- whether on record or live on stage. Listen to the stunning harmonies of "Nobody Ever Died Of A Broken Heart" and the emotional honesty of "Cowboy Crush." Hear the intelligence and heart in "I Am Pretty" and "Tougher Than A Man," stories of a woman in an abusive relationship and a struggling single mom. The music of Cowboy Crush offers affirmation for women in difficult spots, with songs that never fail to resonate with their fans, who view the trio as that perfect combination somewhere between trusted friend and sister.
They all agree, "We get to do what we love for a living. Sometimes that makes you queasy, and sometimes it makes you scream with joy and adrenaline. Sometimes you're looking at the hill in front of you as the chain pulling you up goes click, click, click, and you're wondering what's on the other side, but when it's over, we always want to get back on again."
