“Mile Wide” – Trickshooter Social Club: Post 9-5 Garage Rock

Artist: Trichshooter Social Club Single: Mile Wide Genre: Garage Rock, Rock n Roll, Classic Rock Release Date: October 10th, 2024

“Mile Wide” by Trickshooter Social Club taps into the restless, rebellious spirit of Americana, delivering a track that celebrates breaking free from self-imposed constraints. It’s a song about blowing open the cages we build for ourselves and embracing the chaos that comes with defying expectations. The band, rooted in Chicago’s rich tradition of roots-rock, layers this message over a foundation of stomping rhythms and unapologetically gritty guitar work, inviting listeners to escape alongside them.

Musically, “Mile Wide” leans on familiar territory—a blend of alt-country, blues, and rock that recalls the raw energy of 80s garage bands with a modern twist. Trickshooter Social Club’s signature sound is tight, riff-heavy, and whiskey-soaked, but there’s an intentional simplicity in their approach. It’s not about reinventing the wheel; it’s about doing what they do best—crafting songs that are made for the live stage, where sweat and redemption share the same space.

In the broader context, Trickshooter Social Club positions themselves alongside bands like The Black Keys and Wilco, embodying the ethos of garage rock with a conscience. Their music isn’t designed to push boundaries but to perfect one of the most well established sounds in modern music. “Mile Wide” fits comfortably within that narrative, offering a cathartic release for those looking to escape, even if only for the duration of a song. The band’s strength lies in their ability to channel familiar influences, even if it doesn’t break new ground.

For fans of gritty, no-frills rock with a dash of introspective lyricism, “Mile Wide” is a solid entry into Trickshooter Social Club’s growing catalog—a band that knows their sound and delivers it with a sense of purpose.

“Real Deal” – Janita Review
Janita_RealDeal

Janita’s “Real Deal,” the lead single from her forthcoming album Mad Equation, is a reflection of her ongoing evolution as an artist who refuses to fit into a mold. Produced by Blake Morgan, the track feels like a distillation of her career-long journey: a blend of thoughtful songwriting, subtle defiance, and precise musicianship. While its surface might seem tranquil, “Real Deal” carries an undercurrent of rebellion—an ethos inspired by films like The 400 Blows and Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid, both of which influence its thematic depth.

“jerrord”- Wes Coeur Review
Jerrord_Album_Cover

Wes Coeur’s jerrord is a masterclass in duality. On the surface, it’s an effortlessly cool slice of electro-pop—driven by a thick, pulsating synth bass and topped with Wes’ Auto-Tuned melodies that glide somewhere between playful croon and knowing smirk. But dig a little deeper, and you’ll notice how chalant it really is. The production is polished to perfection, every layer meticulously placed, and the music video oozes style with a clarity that betrays how much thought went into it. This isn’t some slapdash bedroom pop experiment; this is calculated cool.
