KY Bridgeburners Genre: Gospel Rock
Band: Kentucky Bridgeburners
From the ashes of NINE POUND HAMMER like Lazarus from the dead, The Kentucky Bridgeburners HAIL JESUS! has risen. HAIL JESUS! is the Gospel album Blaine Cartwright was driven to do all his life. 'I grew up on old RnB, Gospel and punkrock like the Sex Pistols, I've always wanted to marry those inspriational sounds in Holy Matrimony.'
Inspiring members of both Nashville Pussy and Nine Pound Hammer to his cause - this album is as raw as it is inspiring. 'It's the best thing I've ever done' says Cartwright.
