     Asleep at the Wheel is a Grammy-award winning country music group from Paw Paw, West Virginia but based in Austin, Texas.
First coming together in 1970, the young collective found themselves opening for Alice Cooper before a mention in Rolling Stone landed them a record deal with United Artists.  After releasing their debut album in 1973, the group was moved to Austin, Texas at the request of Willie Nelson, and a year later would release a self-titled album that would garner them their first hit on the country radio charts.  By the end of the 1970's the group would release 2 more albums, have a top-ten single('The Letter That Johnny Walker Read'), and perform on PBS's 'Austin City Limits', a circuit they've since played a record-breaking ten times.   A large margin of the 1980's was troublesome for the band, losing critical original members and collecting debt, forcing the group to work on commercials and film to catch back up financially.
Though releasing another self-titled album that was virtually ignored, this bump in the road was short lived as by the last years of the 1980's the group would release the albums '10' and 'Western Standard Time', both of which won the country outfit Grammies for Best Country Instrumental.  The 90's introduced a move to Arista Records for the band, and saw the release of two massively successful Bob Willis tribute albums, 'A Tribute to the Music of Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys', and 'Ride with Bob', the latter rewarding AATW with two more Grammies.  Throughout the 2000's the band would continue touring with acts such as Bob Dylan and release Christmas and live-themed albums as well, their latest release(2010) being a Grammy-nominated collaboration with Willie Nelson.(Song Bios Copyright © 2016 J♯)
