From the diminutive stature of lead singer Erica Lane, comes a huge voice leading an alt-country five-piece band. The Hunting Party’s new record ‘North’ reveals a penchant for the kind of intimate country-fried charm you might find in woodside bars out west, but transplanted to our parts to suit street-side tastes.
Turn up the EP and you’ll hear a constant tug and pull between the heartland in tracks like ‘North,’ and the urban jungle in heavy rockers like ‘Man of the Night.’ From the rustic sound of ‘Bobby’ to the epic rockness of closer ‘Poor Proud Fool,’ it’s a trip across America where I’m sure you’ll meet some interesting people. Check out ‘Bobby’ below, and keep an eye on their Facebook as they announce upcoming dates soon. – Mike Levine (Goldnuggets)
