Fallen Roadies have gathered diverse influences from classic rock, pop, blues, jazz and island music to create a 14-track CD that moves from ballads to pop to straight-ahead rock while still maintaining a sound that is distinctively Fallen Roadies.
The songs from "Flowering Diesel" feature original melodies, tight harmonies, thoughtful lyrics and solid instrumental work.
Tony Thomas's tasty lick-laden guitar work, set against the backdrop of Erik Kjelland's acoustic rhythm guitar, reflects his training as a jazz musician while still retaining the impact of rock music.
Drummer Mike Steckling is adept at creating a variety of rhythms to reflect the feel of the tunes Kjelland and Art Ranney write; Ranney's bass parts are an integral part of the songwriting process and range from lyrical to funky.

The greatest band, in the college scene that ever existed
author: Brian West
The album sound great, but to truly experence a show you have to become a "roadie."
They are a hap-harard mix of guys who truely love music, and give it their all, and it really shows.
I recommend this album to anyone, its not to hard and not too soft, which has a fantastic blance between.
