Here’s an advance taste of the group’s alt-country and roots rock sound, “Louisiana.” Also, a few months back, Rudy Panucci reviewed the latest Coal Men CD “Beauty Is a Moment,” which he described as “a huge slice of Americana Pie ,” and a band that “manages to epitomize the best of Southern Rock without sinking to a redneck stereotype.
