💿 ALBUM REVIEW: Leigh Pilzer - Keep Holding On

Image
Get ready to groove with Dr. Leigh Pilzer , the Washington, D.C. baritone sax powerhouse who proves that jazz is meant to be a living, breathing party, not a dusty museum piece. Described as a pure force of nature with a gruff, punchy, and assertive sound, Leigh brings a heavy dose of soulful grit to the stage. She has traded licks with the legendary Smithsonian Jazz Masterworks Orchestra and even arranged horns for local legends like Chuck Brown and Eva Cassidy , and now she is bringing that deep, soulful swagger front and center with her vibrant new album, Keep Holding On. This record is a masterclass in pure, undeniable groove, packed with plenty of attitude, low-end bark, and raw energy that blues fans will instantly appreciate. Keep Holding On strikes the perfect balance between paying respect to the jazz heritage and absolutely cutting loose, making it an essential, high-energy addition to your playlist.   🎵 LISTEN & SUPPORT THE ALBUM   Keep Holding On by Leigh ...

Chris Eger Band - Show Me Where To Sign - New Release Review

I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Show Me Where To Sign, from Chris Eger Band and it's solid blues rock. Opening with shuffle rocker, Eatin' Crow, Egar on lead vocal and guitar has a firm approach backed by Greg Morrow on drums, Eli Beaird on bass, JT Corenflos on rhythm guitar and Moose Brown on keys with a dynamic horn section made up of Steve Herrman on trumpet and Jim Hoke on sax. R&B track, Last Addiction is one of my favorites with it's funky rhythm, punchy horns and toned down screaming guitar lead. Very cool. Another track with a super back beat is Too Much Fire with super lead vocals and strong drums. This track is clean and polished giving it a clear radio profile. Wrong Five O'clock is a pop rocker with a hook. With it's catchy lyrics and melody, another good radio track. Wrapping the release is the second of two (this one extended) SRV tracks. With it's Jimi Hendrix structure and obvious tribute to Stevie Ray Vaughn, this ballad rips loose with Eger opening up his guitar throttle. Very nice closer.
