Eagle's Rock, 1:05pm



Describe in a Tweet:
Toe tappin', whiskey swillin', shoulder swaggerin' Americana!



What Happened:


The plaid wearing 5-piece serve up a prime slice of southern fried blues. At times, it's often reminiscent of Dire Straits and our very own Van Morrisson. By the 4th song, things veer into unabashed country rock terrain, but the crowd laps it up, and the knees start jerking and heads start bobbing.



On Top of the Mountain:

The lead guitarist plays with a mind blowingly effortless dexterity, similar to many renowned blues guitarists such as Stevie Ray Vaughan. The last song is unadulterated blues; if you were to personify their sound, think of an out of control brawl in a Western saloon, where bodies are flying across the bar and out the swinging doors...yep, it's that good!

Slip, Sliding down the Slope:

The vocals are a little drowned out in the mix, and some throwaway moments spoil the band's performance.
