Texas rockers Texas Hippie Coalition are set to release their new album, ‘Gunsmoke‘, via MNRK Heavy on 4th October 2024. This time, Big Dad Ritch and his crew wholeheartedly embrace their country and southern rock stylings as well as a lifelong passion for westerns. This comes through loud and clear on the first single and title track, ‘Gunsmoke‘. Rustic acoustic guitar crawls through a stomping beat punctuated by waves of groaning distortion. It climaxes on a chantable chorus, “I sell weed and liquor to the city slickers. I can get you there quicker, and like a gun…I smoke.”

how to have a good time. A collective of tried-and-true rabble-rousers and dyed-in-the-wool storytellers, the Texas quintet – Big Dad Ritch [vocals], Cord Pool [guitar], Nevada Romo [guitar], Rado Romo [bass], and Joey Mandigo [drums] – spike ass-whopping hard rock with a kick of country swagger and a whole lot of Texas grit and gusto.
Gathering tens of millions of streams, logging thousands of miles on the road, and energizing countless fans, they deliver ten anthems tailormade to simmer and scorch on Gunsmoke [MNRK Heavy].
“In terms of the lyrics, the vibe, and where THC come from, we definitely went home on this album,” says Ritch. “It represents the Wild West Texas-Oklahoma area. You’ve got a little red dirt country spilling over into the storytelling and metal. It’s a return to the dirt where we came from.”
Line-up:
Big Dad Ritch – Vocals
Cord Pool – Guitar
Nevada Romo – Guitar
Rado Romo – Bass Guitar
