Welcome! We are so excited that you're here.
Booted from New York two years prior (long story) Maynard “the Cowboy” brought his cowpunk brand back to New York where he met Bronx born wallflower “Cupid”, her passion was to apply her Social Work degree into an album thereby helping more people. Maynard vowed to expose her lovely music to the world and add his tunes too. Thus, the misfit duo Cupid and the Cowboy was formed.
Stock regulars at Harlem clubs The Shrine and Sylvana in NYC they just returned from a tour. While in Nashville opening for Hannah Juanita at Dee’s Lounge, they were abandoned by friends and deemed a “toxic pair,” thus opting to sleep in their rusty truck “Lola.“ To add insult, the Cops were called on the duo for sex trafficking LOL. We just want to have fun and make people happy with our songs!
Bette Midler says “Cupid’s got a beautiful voice.” Zest Radio Show adds “omg goosebumps”. Rock n Roll Johnny shouts, “they’re a great act”. from Cupid’s twee RnB to Maynard’s cowpunk they evoke elements of Swift or Rodrigo to The Cramps or Lou Reed.
Watch for their new single Rump Shakin Cowboy OUT SOON!
And please enjoy our gallery of recorded songs with liner notes and original artwork below! We love sharing our songs with all our friends.
Our latest song out now is an 8 minute, slow-grindin’, barn-burnin’, soul-takin’ slow ride…
Cupid wrote this song during the pandemic, meant to inspire us all to get back out the house and live again.
This tune is one of our favorites, describing a wanton relationship from the point of view of an alley kat’s admirer
This song sheds lights on the wife of Job who is basically ignored in the bible story of the same name.
We wrote this song for a rockabilly contest, and it came out Americana. One of Maynard’s favorites! A what-if song.
Yes, this song is about a stripper, who he encountered upon his first trip back to the strip club after his divorce.
