Dave, great mix, great vocal and great performance!! Your solo was exceptional exuding wonderful tone with tasteful subtle notes popping up here and there (yes I noticed that). Great work! Take care, Torrey. I second what Torrey said. Very strong modern blues. Good job all around. I enjoyed it very much. Tom Thanks very much Tom, I appreciate that!

Dave & Chris,
EVERYTHING about this works!
A good blues/rock write. Excellent arrangement and excellent mix. "Just right" instrumentation. Good drums. The piano is a great addition.
Tasty guitar work throughout. Awesome lead!
Well sung. A terrific listen. Might be your best. Worth many listens.
floyd Floyd, awesome comments, thanks so much! As far as the drums go, you can take credit for that. On our last song you thought the drums sounded good but were a little dry. I added a little reverb to them and sure enough they sounded much better. So, I saved the effect chain I was using on the drums as a preset and used the identical preset for this song.

Hi Dave.
Wonderful stuff!
The backing has a definite funk feel to it - a bit sort of Average White Band, which I love.
Everything works well and the solo is sublime. Great vocals too.
Very professional throughout.
ROG. Pretty sure no one has described one of my guitar solos as sublime before. Thanks so much, Rog!

Dave and Chris,
This is top shelf all the way!
Not only are the production and arrangement superb, Chris's singing is outstanding and the writing (melody and lyrics) is really engaging. You've both done a first class job with this.
All the best,
Noel Thanks very much, Noel! We had fun this this one and it came together pretty quickly, usually a good sign.

Another really excellent production with great vocals. The wah effects and other effects you are using on the guitar are great. Love the solo.
Awesome job. I don't use the wah pedal very often, I think this might be the first time I've used it on a recording, but it seemed to fit this tune. Thanks very much for taking the time to listen and comment, I appreciate it

Hey Dave, Y'all have a great vibe going here...Janice immediately mentioned that Christiane was reminiscent of Chrissie Hynde. We rarely do comparisons with other artists so this is meant to be a high compliment "leave the dusty road behind me misreading all the signs" Nice line in a fine write. The production well accents the lyric and melody...the guitar is tasty and comes and goes at the perfect places in the mix. Well done!! J&B
Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos
