Music INSIGHT on the porch with the band while they work it out. When a dog barks at the band and joins in halfway through a song, it’s hard to get upset; somehow these people you’ve never met are already friends of yours, and all you can do is laugh. “All ages, all races, everyone seems to enjoy it,” said Brown. “Our demographic is just everybody.” The band heads into their next recording session during the first week of December, with plans to release the EP on CD at their Dec. 14 show at Hubbard’s Off Main in Oxford. The new recording will be the first to feature McCary’s violin, and according to Girdwood, should show off the band’s growth since The Front Porch Ses- 34 sions. “It wasn’t until this summer that we got everyone together,” said Girdwood. “We all really feed off of each other. It’s great to see how far we’ve gone since then.” Check out the Rattlesnake Rattlers online at facebook.com/therattlesnakerattlers and hear The Front Porch Sessions at soundcloud.com/rattlesnake-rattlers.
