   About Moonshine Mason and the Rot Gut Gang
Moonshine Mason and the Rot Gut Gang was formed in March 2004. Our goal is to preserve the heritage and sounds of traditional country music by performing live the music of legends such as Porter Wagoner, Buck Owens, Merle Haggard, Johnny Cash, the Louvin Brothers and others.



Considering the fact that modern "country" radio and television programs generally ignore current releases by the living legends of country music, let alone paying any respect to their classic favorites, it becomes the responsibility of live working performers to remind us of the rich, exciting nature of this timeless music genre.



In short, bands like Moonshine Mason are keeping traditional country music alive for future listeners by performing the classics as well as new, original material.

Dustin, you hot stud muffin LOL, thanks for the wine for me and the girls. That was very nice of you. We opened them up and all celebrated together with it. You really didn't have to do that, I was kidding when I said I was upset about the drink. LOL I thought you knew that.

But, thank you, my dear. Hope to see you soon with your sexy voice singin' some good tunes. ;)

Hello there! If I've already been in touch on this please bear with me but I'm trying to get the word out about www.indianapolissongwriterscafe.com

I'm working to create a place that ties together all the people, places & events that are relevant for an Indianapolis songwriter or a fan of this kind of music.

Please visit the site and if you've got a moment please add www.myspace.com/indianapolissongwriterscafe to your friends list.

If you'd really like to help spread the word I'd be grateful as can be if you copied the little piece of code from either the ISC website or myspace page to display the banner on your page. Just drop me a line if you'd like to but aren't sure how.
