Editorial Reviews

TimeOut NY, June 2001

one of the best neocountry albums we’ve heard in awhile.

Product Description

"Lovely Melancholy" - the debut release by Boston's Lucky 57 - is a 9-song collection of twang-tinged pop rock produced with Boston rock icon David Minehan (The Neighborhoods, Paul Westerberg, Aerosmith) and Carl Plaser (Old 97s, The Ramones, Hole). With a love of pop and a soft-spot for traditional country music, Lucky 57's songcraft tips a hat to both genre's for a sound that's both rootsy and rockin' - a sound critics have coined "twang pop." Self-released to rave national reviews, inernational airlplay and an unusual shot as one of 5 finalists (and the only alt. country Yankee's in the bunch) in the Jim Beam Country Band Search 2001.

This review is from: Lovely Melancholy (Audio CD)

I read a review of these guys and decided to buy the disk. Great band, great tunes, and the lead singer Kip McCloud has a bourbon-soaked kind of voice that could melt an iceberg. Was totally surprised that more of the Americana world hasn't latched onto Lucky 57 and expounded their praises.
