I like this for several reasons. The vocals and harmonies are awesome. The lyrics are wise. And the song is a wee funky. Love it.

Love how you guys have such a identifiable sound. A Damn Good Rock Band.
Solid Bass (duh).
Chris sounds great (as always) and Dave's harmony underneath works well.
Excellent guitar work. Nice soloing...
You use EZDrummer well. That should be noted...

Cool.

Dave, Marty & Chris, this is an outstanding rocker.
Super vocals, guitar licks, backing tracks and mix.
Super groove.

Hi, Dave & Talented Troupe.

What they said: solid vocals, popping groove, rocking guitars, good write.

Ooooh, Extra points for the tambourine! laugh

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

What an amazingly fun song, Dave. Man, you and Chris are really sounding so good on those vocals. Then you craft that guitar riff that really adds a masters touch. You're not done cuz that solo grabs the listener, who is already on a high because of those harmonies, and adds a smile of delight to their faces. Seriously good stuff, sir. I learned so much by being the fly on the wall. Chris is such an outstanding soul with a heavenly voice.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Man, what a great vibe in this song. Y'all have got a signature sound, and it's always good! I don't know who did the writing, but it's good too. Dave the way you and sound together is always superb, and this is yet another example. I always enjoy your picking. You seem to just find the right note at the right time with the right punch. Your vocal mix with Chris really worked well also. Whoever thought to use her vocal as a BGV was brilliant. Good stuff all the way around. My biggest coplaint is that it's not on Soundcloud so I can add it to my favorites!

Cool breezy jazz rock vibe and I liked the duo high low vocal. Hey, I can use all the positive I can get. Great job. Much enjoyed.
