REXÂ HOLMES: He's A Band
Which one's Pink? Jethro Tull, I love him.
       This crew is in for that same confusion. And to further the fuzzy-ness, they have two front men. And there are three guitarists. And the bass player is female. So they have plenty of PR hurdles to leap, and "image control" crap to consider.

Good songs, however, trump anything. Rex Holmes's songs reflect and document the human experience. And delivered by musicians who play with authority and artistry. Oh yes, and FUN. This Rock'roll band has all the elements that are required to connect with the world.
Rex Holmes is a rare find. Five strong individuals who take advantage of the natural friction of their personalities and goals. They bring to mind at once Squeeze and the Beatles, Tom Petty and Joe Ely.
