Long time listeners to the Radio Show know that I absolutely love this band. I stumbled across them years ago while searching for rockers from my beloved Detroit. I couldn't find live footage of them that was anything less than brilliant. Back then they were a 5 piece, and they put out their album in 2011. This new video is of the opening track.
They have that Rock'n'Roll that swings-thing which Detroit bands seem to specialise in. Also they really know their rare records and have mixed Garage, Psych, Rockabilly, Freakbeat...all sorts of seams into their sound.
I have a feeling that they are a hard-working band which rarely has any money behind it. So if you liked that track send 'em some dollars!
That's the album, available here
and/or go see 'em. They always seem to be playing out.
