Ride On The Train

2014-07-10

Ø "Hollis Brown" is the name of the band, not a performer's name.

Ø Name taken from Bob Dylan song "Ballad of Hollis Brown"

Ø Straightforward commercial modern rock

Ø Listenable, Likeable, Sustains interest on repetition

Ø Hints of Traveling Wilburys, Neil Young, J Geils influences

Ø Publicity material says: Uniting hook-soaked pop and blues-drenched rock-n-roll.

Ø Genre on Facebook "American Rock"

Ø FCC CLEAN -- review by Gerald Etkind
