Reviewed with rave ratings by Lizzie Cornish, a respected music critic formerly with the BBC, who declares, “Great songs! I don’t think I’ve got a favourite here, as such, because the songs Chris writes are all able to stand alone.”

Chris LaRose’s unique music style features straight up blues tinged with a traditional folk influence. Upbeat, rousing, and thoughtful lyrics about everything from rockabilly chicks and absinthe to privateers, super-girls, and former flames, combined with moving, reverent songs paying tribute to factory workers, native lands and personal experiences make this a memorable collection of original songs performed with a strong passionate voice, robust guitar accompaniment, and accented with classic down and dirty blues harp.

“I recorded the majority of this album live in the studio with the exception of a few songs where I added a guitar or harmonica solo. My intention is to give listeners a personal recording that sounds the way I would perform my music for you in person.”
