Desert Radio Desert Radio is the soundtrack of a road trip to Juarez in a '68 Dodge with Merle Haggard, the Heartbreakers and The Who all playing on the mix tape stuck in the dashboard deck. A few years ago, old friends Scott (formerly of Evil Roy Slade) and Patrick (formerly of Powerman 5000) were looking for an excuse to hang out, drink some beer and write some country-flavoured rock and roll songs. One thing led to another and they soon found themselves recording tracks for an album and playing some shows. After posting the song "February Day" from their debut album on the independent music website "garageband.com", they found that their track topped that site's "Americana" and "Rock" charts. "February Day" eventually became the number one ranked "Americana" song in the history of garageband.com. This led to the track being featured on Budweiser.com, which in turn led to NASCAR using the track in a Speed Channel video tribute to Dale Earnhardt Sr. broadcast throughout North America on the eve of the Daytona 500. Desert Radio might be one of the hardest rockin' acts Shut Eye Records & Agency has ever brought to Americana/Roots radio.
