CD REVIEWS: Aaron Tippin, Sandy Mason Theoret and The Band of Heathens









Aaron Tippin
In Overdrive
Nippit Records


Aaron Tippin is no stranger to getting his hands dirty and spending time behind the wheel, whether it is in a tour bus or on his farm in Tennessee. His latest CD project is dedicated to all the hardworking souls who put time in the exact same way, pushing long hours and in all kinds of traffic and weather.
A collection of 14 songs, the album includes many remakes of the hits we have heard over the years and are as familiar and comfortable to us as our favorite jeans. Aaron adds his new song, “Drill Here, Drill Now,” as well, which has garnered much media attention in the last few months.

The Band Of Heathens
Self-Titled

BOH Records
A Country, soul, and rockandroll sound, The Band of Heathens boasts a natural and organic fresh touch to the music scene. The songs are all recorded in a studio but have the sound of being live in front of an audience.This being their first studio album after two live ones brings together the best of both worlds. This group of young men are defining their niche in the music world. A project with lyrics that flow easily and blend with the amazing talents of the musicians lend to a welcoming gritty and honest sound, combining Americana with the roots of Country and Rock.Definitely a band that is garnering national attention for well deserved reasons.
