No I'm not boasting.. 'They' are a British rock band in the traditional 70s sense.. and are rather good.

    Nice one   :)

    Love the second track, so many great influences, what's not to like.  It even sounds good on my iMac  :D

    Sounds to me like they have a good commercial model.

    Drawing strongly on stylistic influences to create a slightly deja vu catalogue of new material.  Also leveraging Brit-ness in the US market.  Great image too.  All in all a good strategy IMO.
    I wonder how they are doing ?

    YouTube playlist of 17 songs for y'all   (hopefully it works on here = no it only plays one song, so just copy address into your browser and delete the space I put in after https: and hopefully it will work great, well worth a listen IMHO)

    Thanks for the playlist link @ChrisMusic.

    Their album is very cheap on Amazon.. just hope that's not a bad sign for the band cos they deserve some real success.

    No worries, just thought I'd put it out there, maybe gather a bit more support, you never know.

    Great music, good writing, a strong image, and a good strategy for your target market, all should pay dividends.

    This is the fickle music business, and unfortunately they never have been a guarantee of success, as has been proven so many times.

    I agree totally they do deserve some real success, I wish them all the best  :)
