Welcome to Old West Attitude. We started this website to give back just a little bit to the Western Music Performers and Cowboy Poets that have given us so much pleasure in the last several years. The history of the west is fascinating and the music and poetry that is part of that history is phenominal. We hope you will give a listen to some of these wonderful musicians and poets. Please check out our featured performer below. Featured Performers - The Tumbling Tumbleweeds
Welcome to our featured artist's area. Here we feature different artists on a monthly basis. This month's featured performers are
The Tumbling Tumbleweeds from Southern California
As their name suggests, The Tumbling Tumbleweeds are a tribute to the Silver Screen Cowboys such as The Sons of the Pioneers, Roy Rogers and Gene Autry. Although The Tumbling Tumbleweeds feel the Sons of the Pioneers are the "blue print" they do bring their very own unique brand of entertainment to the world of Western Music with a show complete with singing, humor, storytelling and a bit of fancy western footwork. They also write and perform their own original songs!
The Tumbling Tumbleweeds
Little Patch of Heaven
The Tumbling Tumbleweeds are part of an ever increasing number of Western Music artists dedicated to bringing the music and heritage of the American West to people everywhere.
The West and the American Cowboy are an important part of our collective American heritage to be preserved, shared and celebrated! "It is our belief that it is the “story” within each western song that makes it so uniquely western and gives it a life of its own. The cowboy era was an era of legend and folklore and it is that element of story that we Tumbleweeds wish to honor, as well as the integrity of the richly harmonious musical legacy of the Sons of the Pioneers themselves. Their sound transports us to a time and place that was so much more innocent and peaceful than that of our world today and it is that sound that drew us to their music and that which we also wish to carry on."
They are currently in the studio working on a new CD which they plan to relase this coming Fall. They are also scheduled to be featured on the new television series "The Heart of Western Music" on the InCountryTV Network as well as being asked by the Autry National Center in Los Angeles to perform for their National Day of the Cowboy Celebration on July 24th, 2010.
