More Of The Lonely H
Thought we'd share another track from the killer recent release by The Lonely H, Concrete Class. The Lonely H is a four-piece Seattle classic rock band that has flat got it figured out. The booming voice belongs to front man Mark Fredson, and along with drummer Ben Eyestone, bassist Johnny Whitman and guitarist Eric Whitman, their music is simply timeless in sound and lyrics. Perfect for any tabletop jukebox in any diner on Route 66, in any local honky tonk or on any stereo playing in front of a group of friends, their sound is almost a celebration of Americana and old blue jeans and moonshine. In this day and age of so much electronic communication that the mouth is almost obsolete, Concrete Class takes you back to the front porch of the house you grew up in while you watched Uncle Ed change the battery in the Torino. I hate using the hokey term 'feel-good music', but that's exactly what it is. They are going to be on tour through the end of July, and if my work-schedule luck holds out a bit, we're going to try and catch them either in Jacksonville or Orlando in early July. Yes, they sound a lot like the Eagles; by coincidence, the Eagles also sound a lot like them. Highly recommended.
