RAW was recorded in connection with the band’s wildly popular and critically lauded 2019 Netflix documentary That Little Ol’ Band From Texas.
The Grammy-nominated feature from Banger Films and director Sam Dunn includes an interlude that finds the group’s classic line up – Billy Gibbons, Frank Beard, and the late Dusty Hill – gathering for a very intimate session at Gruene Hall, “the oldest continually run dance hall in Texas” located in New Braunfels, in the heart of Texas hill country. That performance provided the basis for the RAW album release.
