☮GOSPELBEACH to release new album “Another Summer Of Love” very soon!

The second album from GospelbeacH continues to deftly honor the grand tradition of West Coast rock and roll. This time around it’s more 70’s FM rock than 60’s AM gold, more cosmo than country with a theme of timeless love.

Nice reviews of HEATH GREEN and The MAKESHIFTERS and MARK PORKCHOP HOLDER via BLURT

Without throwing any accusations of “authenticity” around, it really seems like coming from the American South gives Green a more natural feel for R&B, gospel and the blues, allowing him to fold his pan-seared shout into the Makeshifters’ hard-rocking crash without having to scream to be heard. “I’ve got no one but myself to blame!” […]
