Editorial review
Decidedly Midwest in their approach, the beer guzzlers in Deke Falcon serve up songs that are as immediate as a shot of Jack with a Budweiser chaser on Sand in the Shower, Rust on the Road. Surprising then, that they call Eugene, OR, home, but origins aside, these Deke dudes rock when they wanna. Just check the blistering "Picking Up Sticks in '96" and the muscular "Squadron" for evidence. Perhaps at times their roots rock approach feels dated (think Damien Jurado out in front of a .38 Special cover band), but frontman Patrick Hayden also has the courage to be introspective, leading his group through a somber keeper like "On the Roof." But at their core, Deke Falcon makes bar rock, replete with tinges of roots rock's country and blues elements. And sometimes that's all you need. ~ John D. Luerssen, All Music Guide
Bio / Background
"Deke Falcon's debut, 'Sand In the Shower, Rust On The Road,' plays like Dino Jr. circa 1985 covering Son Volt circa 1995. Which is to say that the boys of Deke Falcon rock their country tunes with an art-damaged fervor..."
--CMJ New Music Monthly #130
"My current favorite record, Deke Falcon's debut is the dream meeting of Dinosaur Jr and Uncle Tupelo; Sonic Youth and Gram Parsons. The Falcon plays country rock like it's art punk -- bristling and melodic, downhome and angular. Wilco is the only other band seriously attempting experimental alt-country right now, and Deke Falcon does it with the sound of SY's 'Dirty' and the Minutemen's 'Project: Mersh'. Standout Track: Squadron."

Eugene, Oregon's Deke Falcon is a sonic sensation constantly evolving through the collaboration of Patrick Hayden, Dave Clark and Jordan Glenn.
