A gentle sway opens the doors of R.O.A.M., the latest release from Ron Houston, as the SoCal music man boards the “Whiskey Train”. The album title (R.O.A.M.) works as a business card tag line for Ron Houston and his songs…..Real Americana Outlaw Music. A dreamy beat plays low beneath “The Rain”, the drums matching to patter of the drops while the hint of a second line beat keeps pace while Ron Houston points fingers at “People Looking the Other Way” and a lonely banjo punches out notes to begin the outlaw tale in “Blood on the Mountain”.
 
Born in Louisiana, Ron Houston relocated to San Diego, finding like-minded musicians to deliver his tunes, Soundtracking an Outlaw code many of the songs on R.O.A.M. trail behind a road-weary sets of rules by marking “Lines on My Face” as Ron Houston wears the outlaw skin for “Drinkin’ Got the Best of Me” and “Raise a Lotta Hell” as he recounts personal history in “Life on the Edge of a Knife” and shares his fears with “Waiting on a Miracle”. With a wry smile, Ron Houston faces troubling times in the city when R.O.A.M packs up the car with family and heads on down to the “Gun Sale at the Church” to exit the album. (by Danny McCloskey)
