The Vigilantes

The Vigilantes' music, while unique, is reminiscent of the country-n-western music of Carl Smith, Hank Williams Sr., Faron Young, Lefty Frizzell, Ray Price, etc., when individual artists were very distinctive and entertainment was clean, wholesome, and family oriented. The only criteria The Vigilantes used in selecting material for their shows was that it had to be a "good" song, and one they could make very dance-able.

During the first 3 years they recorded and released 4 CD-R demos and began playing in various locations around Sweden. In the summer of 2005 they were contacted by US label Raise The Red Flag. They decided to co-op, and a full length album was released during 2006.
