It's just about time for this year's sailing of Sixthman's beloved Outlaw Country Cruise. Set to take place March 20-25, 2026 aboard the Norwegian Cruise Line ship Pearl as she makes her way from Miami to Roatan, Honduras and Harvest Caye, Belize, the Outlaw Country Cruise is celebrating a 10th anniversary this year. And Sixthman has lined up an unparalleled bevy of stars for the milestone sailing; among those scheduled to appear are Lucinda Williams, Steve Earle, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Margo Price, Asleep at the Wheel, Jim Lauderdale, Reckless Kelly, Carlene Carter and Southern Culture on the Skids. Another dozen or so stellar acts will perform as well, including the Los Angeles-based foursome Nocona.
The members of Nocona are Chris Isom on vocals and guitar, Adrienne Isom on bass, Matt Brundrett on drums and Elan Glasser on harmonica. Their music is described as "dirty roots rock 'n' roll," cowpunk, and since they sometimes incorporate psychedelic sounds into their music they are occasionally likened to the great Roky Erickson-fronted 13th Floor Elevators. In other words, these alt-country/Americana rebels are a perfect fit for the Outlaw Country Cruise. In advance of the sailing Chris and Adrienne were kind enough to answer a few questions for us. Here's what they had to say.
