BR5-49 ist eine US-amerikanische Country Band. Ihre Musik hat starke Einflüsse von Western Swing, Hillbilly und Rockabilly.Der Name der Band begründet sich auf einen Sketch aus der amerikanischen Hee Haw Show, in dem der Komiker mehrfach einen Zettel mit der Telefonnummer BR-549 hochhält. Ursprünglich wurde BR5-49 als live Band für Robert's Western Wear, ein Bekleidungsgeschäft mit angeschlossener Bar in Nashville gegründet. Hier spielte die Gruppe mehrfach in der Woche.1995 bekamen sie einen Plattenvertrag bei Arista Records. 1999 folgte eine gemeinsame Tour mit Brian Setzer.Nachdem die Country-Musik-Sparte von Arista aufgelöst wurde wechselte die Gruppe zu Lucky Dog, einem Label von Sony.Nach Ausscheiden von Bennett und McDowell erfolgte ein Wechsel zu . 2015 veröffentlichte das deutsche Label Bear Family Records ein bisher unveröffentlichtes Deutschlandkonzert der Band aus dem Jahr 1996. Die Band wurde insgesamt drei Mal für den Grammy nominiert. (de) BR549 (originally spelled BR5-49) was an American country rock band founded in 1993. It originally consisted of Gary Bennett (lead and background vocals, acoustic guitar), Don Herron (steel guitar, resonator guitar, fiddle, mandolin, acoustic guitar), "Smilin'" Jay McDowell (upright bass), Chuck Mead (lead and background vocals, acoustic guitar, electric guitar), and "Hawk" Shaw Wilson (drums, background vocals). Bennett and McDowell left the band in 2001, with Chris Scruggs and Geoff Firebaugh respectively replacing them. Both Firebaugh and Scruggs later left the band as well; Mark Miller has become the band's third bassist. The name of the band is taken from a mangled phone number from Hee Haw comedian Junior Samples' car salesman skit. BR549 released six albums and two EPs, including three albums on Arista Nashville and two on Dualtone Records. The band's self-titled debut album produced three singles on the Billboard country charts in 1996. The band was nominated three times for the Grammy Award for Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal, in 1996 ("Cherokee Boogie"), 1997 ("Wild One") and 1999 ("Honky Tonk Song"). (en) |
