So they`ve brought their gear back to Nashville and left L.A. with one less twangy band to rock the Pacific coast. Their rusty acoustic-based roadhouse songs for the disenchanted have seen them through to their third release, Legends & Hall Of Famers. The core of the group lay in Matt Reasor and Dan Coakley. Matt writes `em and Dan sings `em. While the tunes flow loosely along, with a back line that`s both electrified and countrified, you begin to envision slightly off kilter imagery in the lyrics. What should be about heartbreak and lost jobs ends up more along the lines of bodies in the lake, disaster, politics and other existential concerns. Still, the beers are on the house and High Or Hellwater are the great neon sign flashing on and off in your brain as you nurse your honky-tonk blues. (self-released) - Robinson, Miles Of Music
