CD REVIEW: THE CHRIS ROLLING SQUAD by The Chris Rollings Squad




THE CHRIS ROLLING SQUAD 
by The Chris Rolling Squad 
 (Independent Release)

The self titled five song Ep from The Chris Rolling Squad is full of barrell house blues and a great introduction to a very promising blues rock trio. Chris Rolling : Guitar/ Vocals, Brice Duval : Bass and Romain Cauneau : Drums. The trio have a swagger about them and Chris Rolling's delivery has a Hendrix meets Stevie Ray Vaughan vibe to it with the harder edge. Lots of smoking guitar is what you can expect that's for sure! For the traditional blues lover, this wouldn't suffice, but for those of us that appreciate the blues and love the creativity that talented artist bring to the blues and rock genre, this recording is great! The trio dish out incredible energy and it shines in the music. Four original songs,  "Whore", "Help Me", "My Redemption" and "Vampire Blues"and a cover tune, "Janet Says Go Go Go", originally done by the 90's Swedish band, Indian Red.  All in all a great find! Would definitely recommend to the mainstream music listener and go all the way up the blues rock aficionado. A musical high for sure.  - Highly Recommended
