  Peter Dula & The Rowers Latest Single 'Long Gone Loner,' Featuring Joe Diffie Hits No 3 On The HotDisc Chart

Nashville, TN. (Top40 Charts/ Joe Diffie Official Website) - Country music star Joe Diffie received news from his good friends Peter Dula & The Rowers that their latest single, "Long Gone Loner," which features Diffie, has reached the No 3 position in the prestigious HotDisc Chart. Dula, front man for the Slovakian country band, is battling cancer (for the second time) and is in the process of preparing for surgery. He's reached out to his honky-tonk hero, Joe Diffie, for support, prayers, and friendship.
"Peter and I have become friends from across the pond and his strength in character is commendable," says Joe Diffie. "He is struggling with cancer and fighting the good fight. Peter is a true testament of a hero."

Peter Dula was born in Kosice, Slovakia in 1981. As a determined and talented young hockey player, he came to Boston in 1999 to play for a junior league, on a path to try out for the NHL. His plans suddenly changed when he was diagnosed with cancer (Hodgkin's Lymphoma). He was successfully treated in Boston over 6 months, and then returned home to Slovakia. Within a few months the disease returned, requiring Dula to undergo a year long ordeal with a bone marrow transplant.

NEW SINGLE "LONG GONE LONER" REVIEWS 18.3. 2008

  I’ve just received a brand new song from an extraordinary band from Slovakia Peter & The Rowers. The song is called “Long Gone Loner” and it features American country legend Joe Diffie. What a rockin’ tune !!! Joe fits the song perfectly and his voice sounds great in harmony with Peter Dula’s voice. I was also amazed by the production and musicianship. Instrumental parts are awesome ! You can’t tell that it’s a European band playing. It sounds just like it has been recorded by the top players in Nashville. Great job ! The song reminds me of a fast moving train that can’t be stopped just like this excellent band Peter & The Rowers ! These boys make the best country music coming out of Europe I’ve ever heard.

Not only did Peter Dula & The Rowers outdo themselves with their new single "Long Gone Loner" again, but they moved European country music to a higher level. It's hard to believe that such high quality precise guitar work and traditional country vocals were recorded in Eastern Europe. What's more, this collaboration with Joe Diffie promises a great comeback for this honky tonk legend, which he deserves so much. Hats off to Peter Dula & The Rowers and Joe Diffie and one of the hottest smash hits of 2008!
