Grace Potter & The Nocturnals

I don't have too much time for a post today, but I wanted to be sure to tell ye faithful readers about another one of my favorite blues-gospel-folk combos Grace Potter & The Nocturnals. Actually from Boston, this band has all the makings to be a real Southern folk powerhouse. High charged belts (and some good looks) from the lead singer, Grace Potter, and some serious grooving on the part of "The Nocturnals", the debut album Nothing But The Water is sure to please. If you remember my posts about Ollabelle and The Duhks, well GPTN is certainly along those same lines but perhaps with some more rock influence. I can see GPTN playing to bigger crowds, appealing to wider audiences and playing more elaborate arrangements.
Be sure to listen to "Nothing But The Water (II)" and "Some Kind of Ride". Oh, and go buy Nothing But The Water. You'll be glad you did.

Listen to "Nothing But the Water (II)" (4.8/5)
