The Cadillac Three spend a lot of time on the road, and they say when they’re riding down the road on their tour bus and they’ve got some free time on their hands, you’re likely to find them playing guitars and writing songs. Jaren Johnston, who wrote the group’s latest single, “White Lightning,” says the vibe on the tour bus is, “Kinda like the old school 70’s days, like that movie Almost Famous where somebody’s always got a guitar, and they’re in the back and they’re playin’ and you end up writin’ a song. Before you know it you’re drinkin’ beer and listen to the demo, it’s a lot a fun. That’s kinda how we do that to pass time on the road.”
The Cadillac Three will be on the road all summer long, with dates all across the country. You can see their full schedule at thecadillacthree.com/tour.

The Cadillac Three – passing time on road :18
Jaren Johnston – “To pass the time on the road we write a lot. There’s a lot of that goin’ on. Kinda like the old school 70’s days, like that movie ‘Almost Famous’ where somebody’s always got a guitar, and they’re in the back and they’re playin’ and you end up writin’ a song. Before you know it you’re drinkin’ beer and listen to the demo, it’s a lot a fun. That’s kinda how we do that to pass time on the road.”
