"Red 14" by Kimi Hayes Band, is the fourth release from this midwest grrrrlll rocker. This CD, is by far, their most energetic and soulful release to date.
Red 14 is an all-original compilation of songs written in the past year by Kimi Hayes and Mike Aquino, guitarist, and Paula Marr, Bassist. The thunderously solid rhythms are hammered out by drummer Hilary Jones. Jimmy Riley''s production (https://www.tradebit.com)is slick and smooth and real, combining drum loops and effects with rootsy/rockin'' guitars,harmonica, mando, and even cello. The combination of modern and classic blends perfectly on Red 14.
"Watered Down Whiskey", track #1, was mixed by Cory Churko, of C Squared Productions. He''s worked with such artists as Michelle Branch, Avril,Faith Hill...to name a few. "Watered Down Whiskey" has a rockin'' country flavor that has geniune "cross-over" appeal.
"Red 14", #3 track, is a tongue-n-cheek tune about riverboat gambling, and specifically roulette. "I even pawned my VCR" Sacastic, funny, and rockin, anyone who''s ever had the "itch" will enjoy this tune.
"You Move Me" #9 track, is a beautiful tune about finding refuge and peace in the arms of a loved one...."When everything has lost it''s glow". This track is full of lush guitars, strong melodies, and groovin'' rhythms.
"Do You Believe" #12 track is the most stark in arrangements; guitar/vocal/cello. "Is this the promisedland?"...."Oh, say can you see, right outside your front door..." a reflection of our tough political/social times. "Do you believe?"
