Bob Lefevre & the Already Gone - Two (2023)

Here’s an example of the power of word of mouth: A guy named Jason in Wyoming occasionally emails me music to consider for this column. Without Jason, I don’t know if I would’ve come across Bob Lefevre & the Already Gone. I’m glad I did, though; Two is as good a roots-rock record – emphasis on the rock – as anyone released this year. Lefevre and his band crank up the guitars, put the pedal to the metal, and don’t skimp on the melody as they tear through ten tracks of delicious Slobberbone-style crunch that would sound great in any dive bar in America. Thanks, Jason, for reaching out, and thanks, Bob, for rockin’.
