Come On Go With Us
Honesty: real chords, real voices, and real melodies that’s “Come On Go With Us.” No smoke. No mirrors. This band’s live show perfectly matches an incredible sounding first album, helping them to become one of the most distinctive and original groups to emerge in 2009.  Band formed in Columbus, Mississippi, in 2008, by two lead singers, Jacob Simpson and chase McGill, whose vocal blend can only be divine pairing.  Later that year, Dustin Hendrick, Justin McKenzie, and Christopher Hunt joined, and the band inked a nonexclusive deal with Severe Records LLC. Shortly thereafter, the bands first groundbreaking record was produced by Chris Sevier (Breaking Laces, Eliot Morris, Painkiller Hotel) at Quad Studios in Nashville. Though initially labeled as Folk Rock, their sound incorporates Americana gospel, stone country, and Indie Rock into a Folk framework, pushing the musical boundaries of each genre. The boys insist that though they are a Southern group, they are not a rebel band. And yet, their ditty “Unlikely Celebration” evolves into destructive barroom rock, while the track “Hey Girl” passionately assures that the band can sell on performance alone. A song as powerful as “Run and Hide” with it’s religious undertones may become a piece of your life. The riff based tune, “Figure Me Out,” happily introduces a sundry collection of blues, R&B, gospel, and folk influences, whereas, “When it Rains it Pours,’ while being nothing real progressive or strange, represents just some damn fine, down-the-line, stone country. “Blue,” the likely single, sounds like it should be featured on the sound track of Juno II – let’s home she gets pregnant again. Their, “She Ain’t No Married” revinvents the faces of gin-soaked country rock, while the song “We are all the same” is a must-take on any road trip to see the Drive By Truckers.  With it’s eerie steel and clever lyrics, Please Don’t” brings back the memories of your secret trip to the worst parts of town, leaving you glad that you didn’t get caught. It is no wonder that they are developing quite the cult following.  When the band was recently asked to describe their band, they responded with, “Well the one thing we have in common with the Indigo Girls is that we really love girls too.”
