Editor's note

A Bullet For Pretty Boy's raw Nashville punk rockabilly

Paul Ragsdale's gritty vocals and guitar work defined their energetic sound from 2003 onward.

For their sound, 'Only Time Will Tell' and 'Patterns' are good places to start. 'The Deceiver' from their 2014 album shows how they kept that energy.

They brought a raw, energetic punk and rockabilly mix to Nashville when that wasn't the local norm. Songs like 'The Deceiver' and 'Only Time Will Tell' carried Ragsdale's distinctive voice over that gritty guitar work. Their 2014 album 'Once Upon a Time in Texas' showed they could return with material that still had that same feel.

They formed in Nashville around 2003 with Paul Ragsdale on vocals and guitar. After some time apart, they came back in 2014 with 'Once Upon a Time in Texas,' and tracks like 'The Deceiver' and 'Voices and Vessels' appeared on their setlists then.
