thebrig Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 (edited) They were signed to Elton John's Rocket Music Management, who said "[i]They have a knowledge of R&B and blues at 16 years of age that I have only amassed in my 65 years. They're just like a breath of fresh air[/i]." Personally, I think they are great, and I'm the wrong side of sixty. On their album [b][i]Snapshot[/i][/b], they wrote nine of the twelve songs, so not bad for kids so young. Here's [b][i]Blue Collar Jane[/i][/b] which was penned by them.

Guest Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 I think they're bloody fab. For guys as young as they are to be turning out the music they are is a joy to me. I think they look great, sound great and show a maturity and understanding of their musical genre well beyond their years. A breath of fresh air I reckon.

BigBassBob Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 [quote name='waynepunkdude' timestamp='1382002167' post='2246483'] I hate these kids [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=197CCb3qz6I[/media] [/quote] Respect for playing that well at that age but that performance felt like it was dragging and the phrasing could be a lot better in parts.

BigBassBob Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Just to clarify I don't mean to sound mean, my comment was a bit like, it's good but could be better. I'm sure those guys will grow up to be pretty talented musos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leschirons Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Why was I expecting the guitarist to go into "Third stone from the sun" halfway through the solo? I enjoyed it the clip. Tons of energy. I remember going to our school "dance" in 1967 (I was 15) and seeing a local band called the Cliff Charles blues band. 100 miles per hour all night. Great stuff.
