With no hint of flash, indulgence or novelty, the Vidalias' simple music grips the memory and effortlessly holds on.' --Paul Evans, Rolling Stone 'That didn't suck.' --Joey Ramone, after the Vidalias performed an old Ramones tune at the Bottom Line in New York City The Vidalias are back! Their second collection of songs features more of their distinctive sweet 'n' hard country rock sound. Charles Walston's inventive, heartfelt lyrics and soulful vocals are supported by Page Waldrop's eloquent, Muscle Shoal-esque Telecaster licks and Henry Bruns' elegant pedal steel playing. The range of material includes political rants ('Whose Side are You On?'), Stones-y rockers ('Misery Loves Company'), a twangy Ramones cover ('Questioningly'), the mellow sounds of 'Thunder and Rain' and 'Body and Soul'; even a collaboration with fellow Atlantan Amy Ray of the Indigo Girls ('What a Nice Surprise'). The Vidalias turned a lot of heads with their Melodyland debut, and rightly so. Stayin' in the Doghouse proves there's a whole lot more where that came from.
