A good dose of rhythm, funky and joyful dancing blues is what your will find in this excellent funny new work of singer, guitar player and composer Lightnin’ Rod Since he was very young Rod felt the call of music, steeping himself of rock, blues and Motown In 2003 he founded his first own band and he started to play blues and rock both in Michigan and Chicago areas In 2004 he recorded his first album and, since then on, he was gradually recognized by specialized media and blues lovers, so his reputation grew as foam After his acclaimed album After The Storm, now he brings us his new project that probably will call again the attention of a loyal audience that loves and admires him Thirteen own songs filled with an uncontrollable force that will catch listeners who look for good songs and varied rhythms filled with interesting vocal and horn arrangements by a bunch of musicians who leave their knowledge and distinctive mark in a fully satisfactory way Some people say that his music is as if Bob Seger and Eric Clapton meet in Muddy Waters’ house, but this is not totally true, because Rod carries blues and rock deep in his heart and his style is always influenced by soul, Motown and gospel music
