Satch leans more towards the country side of music and he deals it up in spades on his new album Riverboys. Joined by his band Kevin Levesque on bass and Lenny Dunn on drums, Satch serves up gritty electric country rock with jangling acoustic songs with lyrics that reflect Kerans’ imaginative story telling. Guitarist Sal Baglio offers up a soulful guitar solo and backing vocals on “Harrison Avenue”. Sax man Dana Colley weighs in with his talents on the album opener “Riverboys”, and Tom Janovitz kicks in a high harmony vocal on “Big Love”. Emotionally stirring, Satch Kerans turns in a qualified musical gem with “Riverboys”. Good Stuff.”Doug Sloan******************************************************* ************************************************************ ******SATCH KERANS Discography: With the Catalinas: "One More Chance" EP***Solo: "Elliot St." CD; "Riverboys" CD (release April 2008) ***Compilations: Wicked Hawt 4 "Push Comes to Shove Wicked Hawt 6 "Elliot St." International Pop Overthrow V.9 "Darkside of Dawn".
