CD Reviews

Good Stuff

11/22/2001

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Superb performances of local music by Washington DC roots musicians. Homegrown, but deserving of national attention- there is some excellent songwriting here (Joe Tripplett, Scott McKnight, Karl Straub and more) with fine musicianship and singing by Bill Kirchen, Mike Auldridge, John Starling, Kevin Johnson, Lisa Mosciatello, the Kennedys, and other noted area artists. Open your ears!"

Neon Delights At The Americana Motel

munkle | Belle View, Virginia | 12/06/2001

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Glowing with neon-cool intensity, Americana Motel is open for business in the honky-tonks of the homeland. The D of C has ensnared many a poor, wayfaring stranger with siren songs of sanctified lust, these are their children, born of bar room romance and late night liasons. Hopeful hearts and lonely laments, it's all in the words you meant to say. They're open all night and yes, there's still room for you, but be aware-spend one too many dreams at this motel and you'll never want to leave."
