Sounds | Robert Jon & The Wreck - Give Love



Bluesy zonder echte blues te zijn, Americana maar dan zonder een 'green card', poppy zonder hitparadepotentieel en een hippieliefdesboodschap maar dan zonder geitenwollensokken. Om maar te zeggen dat deze Robert Jon & The Wreck voor mij persoonlijk de ontdekking van de week zijn. En dat vind ik zelf toch een beetje vreemd, als je weet dat de man vorig jaar nog een live album uitbracht dat in onze eigenste AB werd opgenomen en eigenlijk al sinds 2015 bijna jaarlijks een nieuw album baart.

Nu ja, nieuwe dingen ontdekken kan altijd en dat blijft nog altijd één van de mooiste aspecten van muziek.

Ze zitten trouwens in een kwaliteitsstal want hun nieuwe album Red Moon Rising wordt op 28 juni uitgebracht op Journeyman Records, het label van Joe Bonamassa.
