Uncle Tupelo?

Anyone ever hear of this artist? I was reading through a guitar magazine I just brought and it had a song of his called "no depresson". It looks like a Christian song. Which was surprising to see in a secular magazine. The song is pretty easy; it's just C, Fadd9, and G. I've never heard of this guy before (although I don't know many Christian artists, I guess), I was just wondering if anybody has?

Punkstar-I may be wrong but I think Uncle Tupleo is a band here in the states that plays in a country/rock style (Alternative country?). I believe they have been around a while-often mentioned as up-and-comers but I guess they are still waiting for that Top 20 hit. Be God's-scott

I've got no idea whether they are Christian or not. But it seems like a good Christian song anyway.

Punk...There is a new band out of Austin Texas named Los Lonely Boys (The Lonely Boys). It consists of three Latin brothers and they have a hit song called "How Far is Heaven?". It too seems like a Christian song, but I haven't heard all the lyrics yet. The oldest brother sings lead and plays a sunburst Strat on the video-plays very well I might add. The song is very catchy and the cool thing it that I have heard it on Pop AND country radio stations. It's like the programers don't know where to slot it. Always a good sign! Be God's-scott
