"Liquid Nails are a 4 piece band with a wide variety of songs in their arsenal. They run the gamut of musical genre and give it all a little blue tinge. Whether playing original material or their interpretations of some well known covers, Liquid Nails never fails to get an audience moving. So if you need some good music think of liquid nails!"
"Here we have 10 original tracks which have all been well written and played on by one of Tasmania's top blues acts. The band has put together a mixture of rock, bee-bop, pop, reggae and swing to produce a CD with different feels and styles. The band plays all styles well, bringing them together in a blues format. The band has guitar, keyboards, bass and drums with all members helping in the vocals. The band sounds very good musically and have produced a most entertaining CD."
