Okay, here’s the long and short of it on River City Tanlines.
River City Tanlines is a 3 piece rock n’ roll band from Memphis, TN that combine their delta area musical heritage and the fury of 70’s punk.

Download “Black Knight” (mp3), my favorite song from All 7 Inches Plus 2 More, and you can find more mp3s here.
