You may remember The Wooly Mamas from their Artist of the Month win this spring, the trio that played six years as a cover band before deciding to focus on their originals. Or you may have caught one of their airtight shows around town (and think of how much even a year as a cover band could up a group’s game.) This video for "Suzanne" was released last Tuesday. It’s mostly footage from the recording studio, but the track is an outstanding example of all-American rock ‘n’ roll. Solid and driving, it’s a plea from a bad man to a good woman delivered with a whiff of Ben Nichols on the raspy poignancy that vocalist Rick Patoray imparts on his lyrics (though here’s hoping there’s no similiarity in the size of their livers.) This song will be officially released as a single on October 21st, the first in a planned series while the band raises the funds for a physical release in 2015. The Wooly Mama’s next Nashville show will be at The Basement on October 18th. Keep up with the band as put out more tunes of this caliber HERE.
We don’t know who Suzanne is, but goddamn, we hope she understands. -Terra James-Jura
