There is no doubt that this live recording should be missing in every right-minded Americana, roots, blues or Southern rockfans. This release is excellently recorded and mixed time document…

​Raw song, tight backing and Jon's whiskey-drenched vocals form the basis for their appropriate tunes. Reigning from Southern California, Robert Jon & The Wreck take the Southern rock sound from the east coast and make it their own. Since their inception in 2011, these native Californians; Robert Jon Burrison (lead vocals, guitar), Andrew Espantman (drums, background vocals), Henry James Schneekluth (lead guitar, background vocals), Warren Murrel (bass) and Jake Abernathie (keyboards) have been electrifying audiences all over the world with their soaring guitar leads, rich vocal harmonies, and memorable tunes.

​The Commoners, a rock band from Toronto, Canada, embrace a rich Southern Rock sound with energetic guitar riffs, soulful vocals and harmonies. This self-titled release is an album that commands attention from the very first note. The album's lyrical themes permeate the very essence of humanity, embracing love, regret, ambition and fear with pervasive themes. 

What a sound, what a voice and how compelling, time after time!  Strongly  recommended.

​Although the release 'Shine A Light On Me Brother' has a lot of hopeful songs, Robert Jon & The Wreck does not shy away from sensitive subjects. Robert Jon & The Wreck are one of the best Southern blues rock bands in the world. The musical mastery is mundane and the songs are great. ‘Shine A Light On Me Brother’ is an overwhelming release. 

Amazing ‘blind spot’ lyrics and rich layered songs. A quality you rarely hear in the European music scene.   So don’t hesitate to enjoy!

​Sun King Rising’s debut Delta Tales combines influences from rock, soul and a lot of skills.  John Blangero paints his southern rock like a progmusician: an interesting approach that leads to a strong performance.

​Raw song, tight backing and Jon's whiskey-drenched vocals form the basis for their appropriate tunes. The sound unmistakably reminds us of The Allman Brothers, although Jon interweaves many other elements throughout his sound. We find a horn section in the soulful slow blues "Work It Out" and the opener "Oh Miss Carolina" has all the familiar Southern Rock elements.
This is another great album...!

​Sid spent a decade making music as a guitarist in the USA with a variety of musicians from Nigeria, Liberia, (then) Zaire, South Africa, Cameroon, Zambia and Zimbabwe. His love for African music resurfaces on this album with star percussionist Valerie Naranjo playing the Dagomba Gyil (a member of the xylophone instrument family) as well as congas and a variety of percussion. Also appearing is an ensemble playing the Yoruba/Lucumi Bata drums featuring Richard Huntley, David J D’Ambrosio and Jimmy Greenfield. It’s unlikely that either sound has appeared on this type of recording frequently if at all before now.

​The band Nico Chona & The Freschtones was founded in 2016 in Lyon, France.
Together with bass player Dan Nambotin, drummer Niko Gamet and guitar player Joris Perrin forms Nicolas Chona (vocals, guitar) the brain of this blues band. These playmates play exciting electric folk, Southern rock and handsome edgy blues rock.

​Straight from the heart, more emotional and personal than ever.  Drive-By Truckers made the best southern rock album of the year.  Provocative yes, no fake in music!

​Dynamic guitar driven rocksongs, very special with the voice of Kevn Kinney. Strong catchy songs with southern and weird psychedelic influences. See you in october in The Netherlands. Welcome!

​After listening to this rock album you will be excited and delighted. Warm melodies, whining guitars, heavy stuff and stomping rhythms also. Briljant record!

With the Southern rocker "Better In The Morning" and the heavy pounding "Suit In The Black" they almost embrace "Funky Town", the nickname of their hometown Fort Worth. With and in the country rocker "Colorado" we put on our cowboy boots and also dance around on the soul-sensitive "Pay To Play" and "Fox In The Henhouse", which is excited by interactive piano tunes and handsome drum trowels.

Southern rock that includes country, bluegrass, gospel, blues, folk and even metal. Nice album!

​Rachel Wise can rest assured: her debutalbum brings a smile on your face because it’s honest fun.

​Saving Grace takes you immediately by the throat. Strong vocals and sentimental guitar from the master himself, with the support of a superb talented rythm section. Soulfull reflection!

Could their debut ‘Severed’ convince the international music press, follow-up ‘As I Fell’ has only a few songs to remember. ​

​Southern rock from the American singer-songwriter Amanda Shires. 

After 10 years DeWolff has grown up to a superband.  Their new album, Thrust, can be considered as one of the most inventive bluesrock albums of the year.  Great Stuff!

Mike ‘Mudfoot’ McDonald gives us a beautiful debut album. Why he took so long is a mystery. This album oozes blues, bluesrock and southern rock in the style of The Allman Brothers. Highlights are the very catchy title track, the instrumental ‘Valerie’ and the blues shuffle ‘Lean On Me Mama’! 

Vintage s’70  southern bluesrock that sweeps through  your body and mind.  Intelligent compositions,  sharp guitars and organic vocals create Otis’ original sound.  One advice: LISTEN!

Good old school southern rock with excellent vocals that invites to party.

Maybe they are not a varied or different as The Black Crowes or Blackberry Smoke, but they sure can be put in the same list! Great country rock and southern rock, its’ music from the heart.

The Royal Southern Brotherhood have easily fulfilled the highest expectations. Album of the year… Hell Yeah!
