​The Panhandlers (from the album The Panhandlers available on Motel Time Music/The Next Waltz)
Lone Star State native sons, Josh Abbott, John Baumann, William Clark Green, and Cleto Cordero (Flatland Cavalry) become homegrown heroes as The Panhandlers. The self-titled debut, produced by Bruce Robison, The Panhandlers is an album for, about, and sent out with love to Texas, particularly the western hunk of the state calling itself the panhandle. From a cold highway to a warm truck cab, love picks up drug-store cowboy when a “West Texas Girl” pulls to the side of the road and opens her door while a boy becomes a man under the West Texas sun for “Panhandle Slim” and the rhythms roll like a wagon wheels turning under “This Flatland Life”.
 
The Caprock Escarpment is a West Texas land formation, a natural landmark between the High Plains and the North Central Plains. The Panhandlers give a shout out to the land and its inhabitants, keeping things small town as they plan to go “Caprockin’”, slowing the pace to a sway for the love letter to “Cactus Flower”, and introduce the band as the West Texas landscape passes by outside of the tour bus window in “This is My Life”. The Panhandlers open their debut on a quiet reverie as they leave the land they love with “West Texas in My Eye”, the band following a like-minded soul fallen on tough times with “The Panhandler”.
