MAMBO SONS NEW CD "PLAY SOME ROCK & ROLL!" MAKES NY ROCK'S BEST INDIE RELEASE OF THE YEAR LIST

New England rockers "Mambo Sons" second cd has been recognized as a top independent release by NY Rock magazine.

Mambo Sons (Scott Lawson, vocals; Tom Guerra, guitars; Jeff Keithline, bass; Mike Hayden, drums) new cd "PLAY SOME ROCK & ROLL!" is one of the top independent releases of the year, NY Rock magazine (www.nyrock.com) has recently said. According to NYRock writer Bill Ribas, "You know, I reviewed these guys over a year ago, and I just reread that review, and it could easily apply to this disc. Straight-ahead rock in the Ian Hunter, early Rod Stewart vein, melodic rock with a slight Brit tinge to it. And I love this one as much as the last. One of the nice things about this disc is the guitar sounds -- clean with just a slight edge, very little in the effects department, and it's nice to hear the simplicity and how it just cuts right through. "Our Time Is Getting Closer" has a Byrds feel to it, helped along by a twelve-string electric, but for the most part it's rock and roll. All the guys are accomplished musicians, and everything here is done right. Some of the numbers have an updated blues feel to them, kind of like the Black Crowes. Again, it's all good, and I love hearing these guys. Enough said." www.mambosons.com
