Opening with soulful, NTRO , Nate Robinson on bass and Gino Iglehart on drums set a solid foundation, with Corey Lacy building on keys and lush guitar work by Zac Harmon and Kingston Livingston really setting the bar. Terrific opener. Blue Pill Thrill has super movement and soulful vocals by Harmon.

Opening with easy shuffle, Trouble Finds Me Everyday , Paul Boddy on lead vocal and guitar sets a solid platform, joined by Glenn Halo on keys, Chuck Hearne on bass and Dave Hollingsworth on drums.

With it's cool Latin beat, title track, Nosy Neighbors , has strong radio appeal with a great melody, hot drum rhythm and real nice slide work by Boddy.
