We start our Thanksgiving week, thanking
Mt. Misery a Hartlepool, UK band with a sound very much in the vibe of
Dropkick (who have a new album dropping next year). The light jangle and comforting melody is just the tip of this iceberg. Next,
Kurt Baker returns with some of his “Inner Demons,” and it’s brilliantly played with a loaded band, featuring faves Wyatt Funderburk and Geoff Palmer. Next, The
Aerovons are back! I reviewed the return of this
rock curio a few years ago, and lead singer
Tom Hartman.This EP is very much in the same space. After that we have power pop crunch courtesy of
Lùlù, a French band from Paris, and we hope to hear more from them. California band
Sudden Cuts have a dense indie sound, check out “All Over Town” with it’s Replacements guitar vibe, oh and this one is a freebie. Finally we have
Ryan Hendry with his energy-filled singles – and I love his
instrumental cover of a suite of
Genesis tunes, written by the great Tony Banks. Enjoy!
