Solid, well executed rock that would greatly appeal to fans of Tom Petty and Elvis Costello. For a band with members still in their teens, the Riverwinds really understand the genesis of rock n’ roll, incorporating honkeytonk, rockabilly, blues and surf in their clean-cut Americana veneer.
This might not be the edgiest or punkest music out there, but it serves as a reminder of the lost art of earnest, feel-good, sunny day rock n’ roll.
Bottom Line: Catchy and bright, their great summer day drive music.
Notable Tracks: I Want You To Know, Up All Night, My Rock & Roll Song, Ain’t Got No Money
