The Geezinslaws

The Geezinslaws, also known as the Geezinslaw Brothers, were an Austin, Texas-based country music comedy duo consisting of Sammy Allred and Dewayne "Son" Smith. They began performing in the 1950s and gained traction when Arthur Godfrey invited them on his show in 1961, leading to a record deal with Columbia Records and their debut album The Kooky World of the Geezinslaw Brothers (1963). The duo recorded four more albums between 1966 and 1969 under Capitol Records. The Geezinslaws received the National Association of Record Merchandisers' Indie Best Seller Award in 1993 for their recording Feelin' Good, Gittin' Up, Gittin' Down (1992), which also gave them their first chart single in over two decades with "Help, I’m White and I Can't Get Down". Their final release was Eclectic Horsemen (2005). Sammy Allred died in May 2018, followed by Dewayne Smith in March 2019.
