Fresh Track: The Rusted Bucket Band “Last Chance w/Prologue” Featured Track by Brian Carroll - March 14, 2016March 14, 20160 There is this space between “groove” and “grit, rusted roots” that I wish I could live in. The first minute and thirty seconds of the latest from The Rusted Bucket Band happens to float right there. It just so happens that another favorite of RLR provided that prologue, The Ballroom Thieves. The melding together of these two bands into this track is a beautiful merging of sounds and styles into some concrete and new. It really adds something special to the song written by Rusted Bucket’s, Russell Turnquist. There is then a seamless entrance into “Last Chance” that falls somewhere between The Band and Wilco and Ryan Adams and the Cardinals with, for some reason, lead singer Russ Turnquist’s voice taken on some hints of Anothony Keidis around the edges (and I mean that in the most flattering way possible). The song takes on this rift floating feeling as the arrangement builds and builds. Turnquist has this honesty and openness to his voice that is equally as endearing as it is pleasant to listen to. The song has it all. Beautiful harmonies, guitar solos, and as the song moves forward it amplifies and grows in excitement and how many parts are included. Beauty and power combined into one really moving forward. Then I asked you, with all the strength I had Go on and leave me, I’ll see you on the other side Then you kissed me, asked me to look in your eye And you told me, just be the man that I see The band has a residency coming up in April at the Plough and Stars where they will be playing each and every Sunday night and bringing special guests along for the ride each week.
