The Crawdaddies Live from the Road
We get lots of music. For releases from new artists, we think the best spot to give a listen is in the car. Along for the Ride is a weekly focus on independent artists with some great songs -- artists who hit what they were aiming at in making an album. The Crawdaddies Live from the Road works as an album title for The Crawdaddies. The group has the sound and feel of the type of bar band that was on stage for your best night ever. The band is Northeast-based and puts the regional roots/rock and Americana sound into their songs and raises the audio ante by incorporating Louisiana Cajun and Zydeco styles. “Carolina Baby” has a Texas swing groove and “Shake 'N Bake” is a dancing tune that pushes feet with its accordion riffs and washboard rhythms. Whether the beat sticks to southern rock (“Take That Bottle”), teeth rattling rhythms (“The Difference”) or funks it up with a solid groove (“Cuttin' the Body Loose”), The Crawdaddies got the goods. If you missed the last tour, the boys have gathered highlights and high steppers onto Live from the Road.
