Under a Western Sky is an album that displays not only clear confidence and potential, but also a true understanding and embrace of the old Chicago and British blues genre topped off with a unique blend of classic Americana. Released in April 2013 by the Paris-based band, the 10-track album takes the listener to many places and shares a variety of stories, from songs about traveling and love, to a violent case of larceny. The album has a live quality to it, and every track seems to feed off its lighthearted imperfection; perhaps this quality is what makes the record so natural, raw, and totally blues-infused rock & roll.
The listener will begin their journey on a classic American road trip with a girl on a track entitled “The Road.” An excellent choice to kick start the album, this song’s upbeat vibe will encourage the listener to keep tuning in. The next track, “Scratch My Back,” is a song which attempts to set free an array of bottled-up emotions – he’s had this itch for so long, and he needs this girl so they can “make each other right / just like before.” Property is stolen in “Larceny,” and the listener is then brought down to “The Border,” a short Spanish-style acoustic-guitar instrumental that cleverly leads into the track entitled “Mexico.” A lovely song, “Mexico” is a story of traveling there with the high hopes of clearing his head and finding himself again in the midst of having lost his woman. “Awakening” is a soft, beautiful song of a newfound spirituality, while the cover of Howlin’ Wolf’s “Little Red Rooster” booms with grungy distortion. “California Hills” follows suit, a song about the 1860s Gold Rush in which he gives all that he has in order to get his lady to California as she chases the gilded promises it infamously offers. “Poor Boy” walks aimlessly through his life, barely scraping by to make ends meet and always trying to remember to stay “on the right side of wrong.” Finally, the album closes with the track “Hannah,” a mellow song about the Civil War laced with a beautiful and unforgettable sense of nostalgia.
While the eclectic independent band is still gaining notoriety, this album will surely lead them to well-deserved recognition on the blues rock scene.
