With their third album Homesick For Another World coming out later this month, the band recently released the single “Turkey Vulture”, a somber folk ballad that builds into a classic-sounding rock number, sprinkled with mandolin and piano and breezy vocals. Inspired by watching actual turkey vultures swarming a walnut tree while leering down at recent roadkill, lead singer Casey Dayan says…
It’s a punchy and rousing rocker that picks the best of classic rock with a never-stopping rocking groove and spirit that feels like a brilliant blend of The War On Drugs, Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever and even Wolf Parade.
“Don’t Give Up on My Love” sounds downright Motown in its writing and execution, a vibe that’s tragically rare in modern music. So thank you to Mr. Chambers for keeping it alive. You’re performing a public service.
