SOUTHERN GENTLEMEN - Third Time Is The Charm
"Third Time Is The Charm" is the third CD from the heavy blues rock
metal band SOUTHERN GENTLEMEN. This release features two new band
members in vocalist Eric Johns and bassist Dave Swart.
Guitarist and band founder David T. Chastain states: "Eric's voice was
what I had been searching for the past few years to take the band to
the next level. While I was always a fan of Eric's vocals, until he
sent me his demo with another band, I didn't know he could do the heavy
blues based rock so well. On the demo he did an amazing job on a Janis
Joplin track. Not many people, male or female, can do that!
Back playing drums on the new CD is holdover Mike Haid. Mike immediately locked with Dave's powerful bass.
The bands heavier sound also can be attributed to metal maestro
Christian Schmid who mixed and mastered the CD at the Music Factory in
Germany. Christian also worked with David on the latest Chastain band
CD In An Outrage.
"The music definitely has hard rock, blues and metal influences
exploding throughout the tracks. It makes a lethal combination. It is
definitely a modernization of some classic music. It is fun music with real singing, not screaming, and without all of the dreariness of most metal. We went for
a live vibe in the studio. No overdubs, just drums, bass, one guitar
track and vocals. We should sound exactly like the CD in concert. How
many bands now days can say that?"
