New York is a big city. Plenty of room for all kinds of music, but not the kind of town that is associated much with basic rock. But it's there. Hollis Brown is a foursome from Queen's that looks back musically. Their self-titled debut album needs only a little over 37 minutes for the eleven tracks.
The major force drummer Mike Graves who lays down rock solid rhythms with well-paced fills and rolls to keep things moving. Completed Fool might be a hit record and Bills & Ducks is made for the audience singing along. Hollis Brown is an album that will sit comfortably among AM friendly rockers like Tom Petty and Ryan Montbleau.
