Great review of JAMES LEG “Blood On The Keys” from UBER ROCK

The title of James Leg’s third solo album is pretty apt I reckon. I’ve seen the former Black Diamond Heavies dude live and I can vouch that he bleeds and sweats for his craft like it was his last gig before descending from this Earth to the pits of Hell. His brand of high voltage, fuzzed-out garage rock is equal parts Tom Waits, Jim Jones Revue and Howlin’ Wolf… are you interested yet? – READ THE REVIEW HERE

MARK PORKCHOP HOLDER “Let It Slide” gets ★★★★ 4 beers from I94 BAR

You have to try hard to come up with a variation on “Stagger Lee” that people haven’t heard. Porkchop and Co turn it into a primal stomp, with a massive bottom end and nasty, jagged guitars arguing over a mournful blues harp and with Hendrix singing. Heavy and crude, as opposed to most of the rest of the record and a tour de force. A Murderous Ballad indeed.

Get some pork on your fork. That’s all I got to say. – I94 BAR

★★★★ 4 beers for HEATH GREEN AND THE MAKESHIFTERS from I94 BAR

Bluesy-Southern rock meets The Faces.

It’s just a theory so bear with it: As music’s once essential ingredients like passion and energy become even more diluted, those who still want to practice rock and roll as it used to be known will be forced right back into their past. – READ THE REVIEW HERE

MARK PORKCHOP HOLDER’s new song “Disappearing” featured in The CHATTANOOGA PULSE

Mark “Porkchop” Holder Is No Disappearing Act

Known for his blistering guitar and raw power, “Disappearing” shows another side of Holder, a slinky, slick slide piece that proves the point that Holder can exercise restraint when it suits him. The result is a tune that—if the rest of his music is burning stage lights, hot vacuum tubes and sweat—is a cool breeze blowing over the audience. – CHATTANOOGA PULSE
