Chemical Spill's 11 tracks of sonic bliss recall a time when music was as big as the personalities who created it. The anthemic melodies and evocative lyrics call to mind some of the greats. There are shades of Elton and Elvis...Prince and Queen...Bowie and the Beatles.
There is no filler here.
This is addictive, unabashedly melodic rock n' roll.
Each song is a show stopper, worthy of obsessive multiple listens.
From the gospel-tinged twang of "Now I've Really Done It" and "Trucker Hat Blues."
...to the glammed-out grandeur of "Conspiracy..." and "Happiness."
From the funky, playful pop of "Loretta" and "...Chemistry".
...to the old-school soul balladry of "Pushover" and "Lay Back Down."
...And did we mention the edgy, electronica-laced splendor of "Suspicious Sunny Day," "Dragonbelly," and "The Pharmacist"?
This is an album of dazzling versatility from an exciting new songwriter and performer. Producer Justin Beckler surrounds Kimbro's driving piano and powerful vocals with a lush, eclectic soundscape.
"Kimbro is a terrific pianist and singer...a smooth, polished voice."
--The Orlando Sentinel
