Release Notes:
--------
Sometimes being a 'tastemaker' can be tough. You have to slog through thousands
of band releases that are neither good or even worth your time (which is usually
easily decided by badly written bios, poorly constructed album artwork and
poorly produced albums) to get to bands like The Statesboro Revue. Quite simply.
Everything about Ramble On Privilege Creek is worthy of talking about. and
there's nothing on their delicious new album that doesn't tickle my ears' fancy.
From the Americana instrumentals to the strong lead vocals of Stewart Mann -
who fronts the band with brother Garrett Mann, The Statesboro Revue make music
without worry for mainstream radio cons sessions (songs like "Half Mile To
Lincoln" feel like long lost Elton John/Bernie Taupin classics) while "Fade My
Shade To Black" [listen here] recalls The Black Crowes similar power and verve.
"Isabella" is an exquisite little tune that is rootsy and melodic and just damn
brilliant. The band's stories are strong, the vocals are top notch and the
performances from the band are the kind that reminded me of Zac Brown Band and
Connor Christian and Southern Gothic.
The Statesboro Revue are a band that deserves any and all attention they
achieve. They create music that is real, rootsy and fits somewhere on the same
sphere as Zac Brown Band, Mumford and Sons, The Avett Brothers, Shovels & Rope,
and The Lumineers. Do yourself a favor and go buy Ramble On Privilege Creek and
be prepared to be blown away. I was.
