LOS ANGELES - s4story -- Pioneering country punks, Blood on the Saddle return to the Redwood Bar in downtown Los Angeles, California, on Saturday, November 14, 2026, with supporting acts Celebrity Telethon and Tenement Rats. The band is celebrating the 40th anniversary of their 1986 sophomore album "Poison Love," reissued August 28, 2026, through Ton-Up Records. Trouser Press described the album as "enough electricity to make a deep impression," and William Ruhlmann at AllMusic said the album "demonstrates tremendous growth" and that "they still sound as though they might break into a double-time version of 'Ghost Riders In The Sky' any minute, but that's their charm."
The reissue features all the tracks from the original release, including bonus material. Music videos of the band performing the album's title song, Poison Love, Promise Your Heart To Me, and I'm Gonna Steal You Away are available on Vevo, the music video network.
Spin Magazine described the band as "A high-energy fusion that doesn't sound like punk or country. (Blood on the Saddle) is doing something new and a half twist different from what has gone before." Formed in 1983 by guitar virtuoso Greg Davis with bass player Ron Botelho, drummer Hermann Senac, and Annette Zilinskas, who joined as co-lead singer. The band has released 11 albums and is credited with laying the foundation for the alt-country genre in the 90s.  The band's current lineup is Greg Davis (Vocals, Guitar), Dave Frappier (Drums), and Al Garcia (Bass).
