Nobody's Monkey

There's a new band I have been listening to lately who call themselves Nobody's Monkey. They describe their influences as Merle Haggard, the Byrds and Ronald Reagan. What? A conservative band? How could there be such a thing?

After agreeing to manage them and try to get them booked for various events and parties (I've always fancied myself a bit of a Colonel Parker) they were kind enough to send me the latest song they have recorded called simply "Nick Lied" (Nick? Who is this Nick?).

Although the similarities to a certain Merle Haggard nugget called Mama Tried are hard to overlook, the tune is well-played and quite entertaining.

But what do I know. Listen for yourself...
