A Name To Look Out For

- WILLIS BROWNSTONE (USA): Summer Salt
(Independent Release)
11 tracks. 54.05 mins.
Willis Brownstone are here man, just to slow things down a little
- life's too hectic; just chill out, sit back and listen to some
fine musicians playing a little Southern Bluesy rock. Aaaah. Just
let it flow, drift off, uh? Where am I!?, REVIEW!, right sorry...
Essentially Willis Brownstone are a stoner jam band in the vain
of say the Allman Brothers, but they've rolled that much fatter a
reefer, producing a fine, laidback, collection of melodic tunes;
at times a little funky, as on stand-out opener 'Severed Shoes'
(where lead singer, Ryan S. Patrick, recalls Jamiroquai's Jay
Kay), but always just that extra bit coooooool! GROOVY BABY!...
Humour aside, this is actually a tremendous collection of songs,
polished and professional with a confident lead and first-rate
guitar exertions. Certainly a name to look out for.
