The Casey Hopkins Duo delivers bare-faced rock ‘n’ roll on “Touch EP”

The Casey Hopkins Duo has a huge sound for a two man project. The Brooklyn-based band plays unapologetic, bluesy rock ‘n’ roll with a brazen swagger and an eye to psych bands of the late 60’s. Their latest release, Touch EP, was recorded to tape and has all the warmth and crackle of an old rock record, but the addition of some sinisterly fuzzy guitars keeps the band sounding unlike classic-rock, copycat acts. That and singer Casey Hopkins’s crazy charismatic vocals make The Casey Hopkins Duo a must-listen. Stream them below. – Olivia Sisinni, Photo by Sacha Lecca
