Cincinnati, OH – Grooveshire (Jambands.com New Groove of the Month for Nov09) is announcing their winter 2010 tour schedule that includes dates in Cincinnati, Dayton, Yellow Springs, Columbus, OH, and Cold Spring, KY. Grooveshire is touring in support of their recently released EP “American Son”. The EP has received a very positive review on Jambands.com, writer Brian Robbins talks about “I’m Just a Widow Now” from the EP:
“I’m Just A Widow Now”, which features an opening bass line by Brian Berwanger that is as greasy cool and catchy as the classic riff on Bill Withers’ “Use Me.” This is where the Grooveshire sound becomes even more defined: laid-back and cool drums; solid and dangerous-sounding rhythm guitar (without over-playing – these guys know the value of space); fat organ fills – and a just-out-of-reach slide guitar on the verses that definitely shows Skydog influences. Halfway through “Widow,” guitarists Jason Mollette and Jacob Jones begin to weave and bob with each other. By the time Melfi returns to take the vocal out, the combo of the crunched-up guitars and the gospel-choir-in-the-next-room background vocals sounds like a vintage Humble Pie rave-up, Blackberries backing and all.
