Fronted by drummer/vocalist W.R. Thornton -- better-known as actor/director Billy Bob Thornton, the Academy Award-winning star of Sling Blade -- and featuring guitarist/bassist J.D. Andrew, the Boxmasters specialize in spinning the sounds of the 1960s into the post-modern world. In the words of their 2009 album, the Boxmasters play "Modbilly" -- a fusion of the swinging sounds of the British Invasion and the hillbilly bop emanating out of both Nashville and Bakersfield. The band's country-rock fusion was showcased on their eponymous debut, the first of many double-disc sets they released over the years. This indicates how the Boxmasters were especially prolific in the studio, releasing concept albums, Christmas records, and double albums at a regular clip, running all the way to 2022's Help….I'm Alive.
