Bob Manning has made a life's study of the Honky
Tonk sound, and all that the genre might imply. From his beginnings as a regular
player at Pentecostal Church Revivals, as a child, to living the life of a
Honky Tonk man in the Southeast club scene, he and his seasoned band of
troubadours have managed to artfully preserve the genuine, traditional
essence of a rapidly fading sound… Honky Tonk!
What sets Bob Manning & Nashville West
ahead of the rest? The answer
comes easily to those who witness this show. The Honky Tonk Road Show is the perfect blend of
classic country music, the full-bodied modern sound of today and a unique
attention grabbing stage presence that truly brands Bob Manning &
Nashville West as One-of-a-kind.
When asked, "What is Honky Tonk?" Bob Manning
answers without hesitation, "Honky Tonk is to Country Music what Blues is
to Rock & Rock", and you know he means it when you witness and feel
the passion and emotion put into every second of The Honky Tonk Road
Show. It becomes quite
clear with the first note of the first song, that Bob Manning and the
members of Nashville West have truly lived the words of all those great
Honky Tonk songs. They are
absolutely, without question… The Real Deal.
To borrow words from Bob Manning, right from
the stage and The Honky Tonk Road Show, "On the 8th day,
God said, let there be Honky Tonk!… and it was Gooood!".
