\"\"<\/a>Album art by Micah Nelson<\/p>\n

Lukas Nelson and Promise of the Real<\/a> are: Lukas Nelson (vocals\/guitar), Anthony LoGerfo (drums), Tato Melgar (percussion), and Corey McCormick (bass).<\/p>\n

If I had to find a place in the canon for them, I’d put them in next to Dan Baird and Homemade Sin and\/or the Kentucky Headhunters. They have the same kind of fusion of country, blues and pure rock and roll swagger.<\/p>\n

For example, here they are performing Wasted<\/em>, the first single from this record, on Letterman. Be sure to turn it up, and then get out of your chair, because you will<\/em> want to clap your hands and shake your booty around.
