Two New York hustlers sold a Houston bayou swamp as a great city in 1836, and somehow they were right: this dirty Texas-boogie duet runs through no zoning, endless feeder roads, floods, refineries, the first word ever spoken from the moon, and the most mixed-up, many-flavoured city in America — hot, and worth it, y'all.

L46 The Local Anthems Texas Blues-Rock Boogie / Country Rock

Worth It Yall

Style

Dirty Texas blues-rock boogie fused with Gulf Coast country twang at a swampy mid-tempo 12/8 shuffle around 120 BPM, driven by overdriven slide guitar, rolling boogie bass, shuffle drums and wailing harmonica, sung by a gruff male blues drawl and a brassy female country-rock voice trading lines in a thick Houston accent.
