I'm not a huge music fan by any stretch but saw it on some random review and thought I'd give it a shot. It's just eclectic and catchy enough to make me smile when my shuffle comes up to one of their tunes.

Great Country Inspired Tunes from this Talented New Orleans Band.
October 21, 2012
Format:MP3 Music
I was lucky to catch this New Orleans band earlier this year and so immediately ordered this album, I have taken a while to write a review as I wasn't sure if it would be a `stayer' or not. Sometimes an album is instantly likeable and after a while the shine comes off, well not in this case. Opening track sets the pace with Southern, country almost Cajun fiddle and a beautiful clear affected vocal from lead Alynda Lee Segarra. Title track, `Look Out Mama' is one of my faves especially the aforementioned fiddle and some Chet Atkins type yodelling which just works so well.
`Ramblin Gal', is a sort of ballad with minimal accompaniment from guitar and is one of these `c and w' type stories and just washes over you - beautiful. Track 4 `What's Wrong With Me' is one of those love worn laments, with fifties - esque back vocal crooning. That leads to `Ode to John and Yoko' and is one of the most accomplished of the numbers here and tells the story of - well you can work out that from the title, and I am not a Beatles fan but I most certainly am a fan of this. `Lake on Fire' is more up tempo and shows the vocal talents of Ms Lee Segarra as she hits notes that would make my eyes water in an attempt to do the same. `Riley' is my least favourite it is a dark self conscious tale done in a mood of half lit back alleys and a love destine to crash and burn - blimey I am making it sound rather good, might go back for a second listen or three.
`Go out on the road' has a pedal steel and a plodding feel of a fate accepted in true C and W tradition, together with tinkling piano and effortless double bass, what is not to like? Track 9 `Born to Win' opens with a Sam Doores playing harmonica, he plays nearly everything (and rather well too)this is lazy afternoons and sound scapes of hope. The last track is `Something's Wrong', and it slows the pace down a mite and is a nice low key way to end this really beautiful album. Great live and great on record, can't wait for more.

Loved this cd. Bluesy folk music with a new Orleans bent. Listened to it twice through and already I'm humming the tunes.

One of the best bands out there
HFTRR is my current favorite band. Roots in classic country with Buddy Holly style rock n roll, plus Alynda Lee's vocals are incredible! Read more
