Rob Leines is no stranger to the blue-collar way of life. Before becoming a full-time touring musician who spends over 200-nights a year on stage, he was a welder in the oil and gas industries along the Pacific Coast, eventually traveling the world repairing components of turbine engines at power plants. So, the roll-up-your-sleeves and get-your-hands-dirty work ethic and long days are something Rob knows all too well. His in-your-face lyrics are the product of perseverance and dedication to the pride of a hard-earned paycheck. His Blood, Sweat and Beers follow-up to Bad Seed is still that hard-driving blend of country and rock and roll his fans are used to, with a little swampier, greasier goodness, tighter playing and stronger vocal delivery.
