The Weeklings Raspberry Park 2024, Fantastic Cat Now That's What I Call Fantastic Cat 2024
The Weeklings have paid tribute to the Beatles, but they are so much more than that. Not that they aren't great at it. The band are all veteran musicians with deep and varied backgrounds. This new one finds them doing eight new originals as well as The Beatles' I've Just Seen A Face and She's Leaving Home, Bruce Springsteen's I'm On Fire, and a mash-up of The Buffalo Springfields' Mr. Soul and Satisfaction featuring guest vocalist Peter Noone. The record is non-stop energetic fun. If you love melodic, hook-filled pop/rock, you can't go wrong.Something of a supergroup with four singer-songwriters hailing from other indie groups, these guys bring the songs, the hooks, the harmonies, and tight musicianship to drive a fine power-pop vehicle. Mixed with some folky Americana touches (but not too much), the record keeps coming with great stuff. Toe tapping will ensue, and the songs are both hook-filled and lyrically smart. If you love melodic, hook-filled pop/rock, you can't go wrong.
