Artist: The Kreellers
Album: Sixth And Porter
Do you love harmonica and drums? Are you into Celtic rock? If so, this CD is a peppy and fun one, offering up plenty of tracks that pound out energy and verve. I thought it was a lot of fun!
The musicianship here is fantastic and the vocals strong. A great selection of tunes helps keep the listener engaged, but for me it was the harmonica that kept my foot a tappin’. Something about that instruments makes me feel happy, and there’s plenty of it to go around on this album. The percussion provides enough backbone and everything else fills in nicely.
You won’t find pipes or fiddle as the centerpiece here, so if that’s what you’re into, you might want to look elsewhere. That said, don’t pass on this CD because of that–the music is full and bright and the arrangements are top notch. This is one of those albums where choosing a favorite track or two was just impossible for me. I found myself looking forward to each new song to see what it was going to bring to the table. None of them disappointed.
If you are hoping to find a band with style and energy that can knock things out of the park–be sure to give this band a try.
