Eastbound Jesus
Thursday, April 19th, 2012 by KyleJovial twang radiates over delightfully warm and humble foundations. Whether digging country roots or rocking guitars, these hearty rascals from Greenwich, NY produce incredibly appealing tight rhythms, choral elation and rollicking stomp. Eastbound Jesus has a vibe I cherish at bluegrass festivals: kids running freely, families sharing meals, camping areas for jamming all night, and tents for free lessons. People are real and their good nature is alive. Thoroughly uplifting, Holy Smokes instills a sense of everything being alright even if you’re far from it. Songs reveal boyhood girl troubles, the workingman’s plight, and helpful lore with a refreshing dash of revolt. Open your windows and doors; feel sun-fueled air kite stymie issues. Hang laundry, clean dishes – dance, sing, paint! Let pieces puzzle together as you lead where life takes you.
Folksy romp from a small town in the U.S.A.

Of all the songs I love with endless feeling or thought attachable,
“How long can you disguise what you feel with a song?” is my favorite lyric from one of the more intriguing albums I’ve heard.
