Avey Grouws Band
“Tell Tale Heart” This is my review of the newest album from The Avey Grouws Band “Tell Tale Heart”. I have to say that out of all their albums this was Awesome. Mainly cause of the wide range of songs and how each song really shows the power and range of Jeni’s vocals. The Band is extremely tight on this album. Chris’s guitar playing is on fire. Then you put the rhythm section in there with Bryan & Randy, well you have the makings of some amazing music. Let’s not forget Nick on keyboards who adds that little special touch to the songs. This album starts right out of the gate with a rocker “Love Raining Down” I feel it’s a great way to start, because you get full sound of the band. Especially Chris’s guitar playing which totally rocks on this song. Then you move to #2 “There For Me” which is kind of gives you a taste of some Memphis Stax’s sound, Nick gets his chance to show off his amazing skills on the keyboard. This song is a good pairing with the first song. #3 is a downright Blues/Rocker “Bad, Bad Year”, which gives Jeni a chance to showcase her Soulful vocals and Chris gives a lowdown guitar riffs. This is one of my favorites. Skip to #5 the title cut; This starts off as slow soulful song. Then takes a left turn and turns into a real heavy deep soulful/rocker with some guitar playing by Chris that is top-notch. Jeni’s vocals on this song just goes to show you the strength & power she has in her voice. Track #6 Chris gets to really deliver an amazing instrumental with some of the amazing guitar playing that I have hear din along time. Song “Mariana” Track #7 “Daylight “reminds me of the songs from Jeni’s solo album. A very nice song with a good story to it. If you haven’t heard Jeni’s solo album, I highly recommend it. The rest album just keeps up the same great pace as the beginning of the album. The last track we get great duo with Jeni & Chris, which gives them a chance to show us how much a fun band they are. This Band is simply amazing, the talent alone is superior. I have not gotten the opportunity to see them live yet, but just seeing some of their videos I know that they put on some excellent shows. The whole band has such perfect chemistry which always makes it more enjoyable to watch live. This album is definitely in my top 3 for 2021, If you have not heard of The Avey Grouws Band, I highly recommend you do check them out. I see nothing but great things for this band.
