Guest Writer – Kier Byrnes : Jeff Byrd and Dirty Finch “Draggin Bones” Review

Another installment of our guest writer Mr. Kier Byrnes. Today we have a throw back to an old one by Rhode Island’s sweethearts, Jeff Byrd and Dirty Finch.

JEFF BYRD & DIRTY FINCH – Draggin Bones


This Rhode Island based alt-country quartet have an impressive debut in Draggin Bones.  Their descriptive vocals, twangy sound and emotive performances remind me between a cross of Travelling Wilburys, Ryan Adams and NRBQ. Frontman, Jeff Byrd has a terrific line up with Dan Simpson, Steve Del Tufo and Shawn O’Brien. The group hasd real chemistry and it shows, especially on songs like “To Be Within/Without” and “Something So Beautiful.”  Its bar room rock at its finest. These guys do a lot of touring fortunately and should be back here in Boston soon.
