Out on the Streets – Dirt Road Logic
The best Lucero song I’ve heard this year turns out to come from Dirt Road Logic, out of Michigan and probably playing soon (and loudly) in a Midwest bar near you.
This is roots-rock the way it’s meant to be done. No nonsense, with guitars that roll over you like a bulldozer. It’s the joyous carousing that comes before the long, dark night. You know what’s around the corner, but for now – in this moment – it just doesn’t seem to matter.
The record is the Rock-n-Roll EP.
