I loved COME THE STORM but I think this new release may have even surpassed that great album.
Eileen Rose writes some fantastic songs and since settling in Nashville has turned a little closer towards country whilst still keeping her rock undertones. She has written all but one of the songs on this superb CD, the one cover being a wonderfully tender version of Luckenbach Texas where she duets with Joshua Hedley. Another terrific country tune is Trouble From Tomorrow with Joshua adding fiddle plus some fine guitar picking from Rich Gilbert.
Eileen can sing some truly wonderful slow tunes, like the beautiful Third Time’s A Charm and Silver Ladle. She also tackles some sad personal losses on Sad Ride Home, the lyrics of this song really puts life into perspective.
Always known for her powerhouse live shows and passionately intense vocal delivery, Eileen does not disappoint on this CD with the brilliant opener Simple Touch Of The Hand and the highly explosive rock ‘n’ roller All These Pretty Things that builds superbly with the electrifying guitar playing of Gilbert coupled with the pulsating excellence of Nate 86 Stalfa on drums, both mainstays in the magnificent Holy Wreck Band. The song is like a powder keg of gunpowder just waiting to go off, and that it does as Rich gives a manically chain-sawing guitar solo before Eileen’s vocals get louder and vehemently vociferous as she shouts at the end ‘I’m Sorry’, truly awesome track that bridges the gap between rock and country.
Brilliant album from the great Eileen Rose and band. DK

Tour Blog, Photos and MORE EURO SHOWS!
Hello everyone,

What a fantastic tour we've just finished. The crowd reaction was unprecedented and inspiring. In fact, we've been asked back for a the Charlotte St. Blues Club opening in London on June 11th. So we've added a few more UK shows which are listed on the home page.

If you'd like to see the photos and read about about our tour adventures, check out the blog on MySpace. Some day, I'll up date this page to add a blog, message board, etc. But right now, MySpace and Facebook are still hosting my idle thoughts.

We'll be heading to France, Italy and Germany for July - can't wait for that.

And next week, we hit the studio in Nashville to make the new album with the Legendary Rich Gilbert on guitar and Nate 86 on drums.

Then, it's off on tour in early Europe going, pretty much, everywhere.

Check back here for all the details. I'll try to keep this as up to date as I can.

Thanks for checking in.

See you out there,

ER & The Holy Wreck
