Ronnie McDowell Torches Oil Companies

Ronnie McDowell has a new release out, “Hey, Mr. Oilman,” which is already a favorite of syndicated talk-show hosts such as Glen Beck, Phil Valentine and Steve Gill.

The song, about the high cost of gasoline and what it is doing to the American heartland and its people, has struck an immediate chord with people across the nation, and every day, excitement about it continues to build. Curb Records, which signed McDowell back in 1984, has moved quickly and serviced the single to Country, rock and talk radio across the nation.  The single will appear on Ronnie’s upcoming Curb release CD, entitled Hey, Mr. Oilman.

“We’ve got to get the message out that people are hurting and that something real has to be done,” said McDowell.  “More than 90 percent of America’s households are being hurt by the price of gasoline. In the heartland, people are spread out. They have to travel a lot further to get to work or school or shop, than folks in the big cities or in Europe. I’ve got friends and neighbors who can’t get to work anymore, gas is so high. We’re a great country, and if we pull together, we can get through this.  our leaders have to make the right decisions!”
