Granger & Earl

If you were to say, “Granger Smith is to YouTube in Texas, what Andy Samberg is to it everywhere else.” You wouldn’t get much of an argument out of me. Besides writing and singing hit songs, Granger and his band have a reputation for developing characters and funny songs, of which they make videos for — then upload to YouTube. But Granger’s latest “country boy” character is proving to be a game-changer for the guys.

In June Granger’s character, Earl Dibble’s Jr. released his first single, “The Country Boy Song” which immediately shot straight to No. 1 on iTunes — above guys named Church, Chesney and Bentley, read more here.

So of course with kind of success, Earl has been making appearances at Granger shows for the past couple months and this Wednesday East Texas will get their first taste of “The Country Boy” Earl Dibbles Jr. as Granger returns to Electric Cowboy.

Sometimes I wonder what Granger Smith would do without YouTube — Did you know Granger Smith was Adolf Hitler’s favorite artist? Not exactly sure if that’s a good thing though.
