While Willie Nelson’s sons might grab the your attention, Los Angeles-based Promise Of The Real also features drummer Anthony Logerfo, bassist Corey McCormick and percussionist Tato Melgar. 

Young and Promise of The Real will release the politically and environmentally charged album The Monsato Years June 16 via Reprise Records.  Along with being released in CD format and on vinyl, the album will also be available at participating digital stores and on Young’s PonoMusic.com website.
