"Hendrixian fuzz meets Springsteen street poetry, with dashes of Foo Fighter melody, U2 passion and a good helping of Black Crowes style roots rock. Playing in the tradition of singer/songwriter rock bands like Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.
Bio / Background
The singer / songwriter's latest effort, "The Other Side of America", is deeply rooted in the classic rock groove, while still sounding contemporary. The new CD was recorded with the Joe Roberts Band who nailed the blistering album opener "Come Home" in one glorious take. "It was like hitting the "easy button" on a few of these", says Vansak. "Three and half minutes later and bam, this perfect storm has been created. I was very pleased with the band's passion during these sessions".
Many of the songs are socially charged and Vansak's guitar skills have never been captured quite like this before. "We set up all these old, vintage amps and just went to town", he says. "This is an album for fans of vinyl records, young and old. Musically, we went for analog warmth. Lyrically, the same characters show up in different songs at various stages of their lives. There are many layers to uncover in these songs should the listener choose to do so".
