This one is a 10 Fellas, I absolutely love this song. From the smokey, whiskey voiced vocals, to the infectious beat. I got this song in my head now. The break at 2:00 with the bass and drums carrying on before the harp player let loose was very different and fresh. Everything about this song kicks ass I would pay to see you guys.

The search for the next Bon Jovi is over; here he is!!!
This reminds me of Bon Jovi is his prime-era NEW JERSEY/SLIPPERY WHEN WET splendor. A true pop rock masterpiece that's sure to attract fans from Paris, Texas to Paris, France. Singer sounds like he's hot -- just a guess -- and he has some great guitars behind him; very melodic with a hook large enough to catch a sword. Oh yes, you've made Nicollete Knight very happy, thanks!!!

This is the best I've heard yet, I have to say this track is fucking awesome. The production sounds great and the vocals are phenomenal. I love the intro with the simple, yet powerful guitar riff. And the high pitched snare rocks, along with the chorus. Very catchy. I love the breaks a little over half way through with the lead guitar riff. Goes excellent together. The simple guitar solo was definitely a must. Simple, but added so much. . . Keep rockin'. . .If you guys are ever in columbia, sc , please let me know. I'll be at the show!

Song is awesome. I love it great upbeat song. Sounds a little like Blind Melon. Great song to sing along with and just chill out to. Would be a great band to take a date to as well. Then the solo comes in and blows me away awesome guitar playing.

Tons of power and energy behind this song - it rocks. Great rhythm guitar strokes, powerful vocals and right on with the phrasing - interesting harmonies on the chorus. Lyrically strong.

Great hoppy sound. You guys are great! I especially like the lyrics. I'm not really sure who you sound like, if anybody. I think I might have heard some local bands around Ft. Collins, CO that sound like you - but that's it.

Love this singer! Sounds like he(she?) has smoked about five million too many cigs, all gravly and worldly wise, like he's been through the ringer 50 times. Now there's nothing left of him but the soul. Groovy music too, but why bother splitting hairs about that? The singer closes the deal! I love it.
