Dolly Shine Reveals A Drifter’s Diary On “Walkabout” Out June 10th

Deep in south Texas there is an old Spanish term called “Dale Shine,” which in today’s slang style simply means “give it gas” and/or “go for it”…

Further up north, in Stephenville to be exact, hails a band so heavily mired in that credo that their stages are nearly overrun with fans pressed hard up against the edges, eyes wide, hanging on every word.  In the Americanized version, they call themselves Dolly Shine, and on Friday, June 10th they will release their new album “Walkabout.”

The album is full of individual tales from a drifter’s diary…no “moral of the story,” just straightforward observation. Pre-orders are available on Pledge Music HERE.

The album is phenomenal…the perfect listen for whatever road trip you have planned this summer, or cruising on the river…whatever journey you may be on.

The album’s first single “Rattlesnake” sets the Americana landscape…desolate, dried up and as lonely as his broken soul. “Hitch Hiking” is the darker element to this odyssey, the murderous underbelly of living that you don’t hear about in good society while “Blackbird” is the chase that ensues and the flee from capture.  Legends talked about at dinner tables go down jaggedly in “Snakeskin Boots” and the immortal battle of man vs. women is a loser’s game in “Twist The Knife” and “Come Out Swingin’.”

“Walkabout” is an honest, uncensored telling of the human condition.  Its voice is tinged with angst and injustice, and it is absolutely not sorry about it one bit.  After all, the truth hurts, haven’t you heard?
