What does Country Mice front-man Jason Rueger have in common with less than 300 people in the US? Growing up in Beattie, that’s ruralest of rural Kansas. On a farm of course, that was passed down through three generations of his family and old enough to be on the Pony Express route. “Family, friends, and working the land gave us a good wholesome life”. Walking dirt road paths, working and living...

Not wanting to wait to learn how to play straight ensured that he’d have an inexorable ticket to a certain kind of sound that was...

Next thing you know, proper rehearsals are underway and everyone’s looking around thinking, “Yeah, I like this, this’ll work.” Starting...
