Below is a review from the Emory Quinn Website:
Creating a unique sound is easier said than done, but Texas country band Emory Quinn has managed to make it look simple. In fact, Emory Quinn's inventive amalgamation of blues, southern rock, Texas country and Americana is perfectly showcased on the band's new album "See You At The Next Light."
EQ's remarkable third studio album begins with
"Hand In Hand," which offers a laid-back vibe along with an anthemic
chorus. Indeed, the band's growth is illustrated in its melodic
improvement over the band's 2008 effort titled "The Road Company" and
2006's "Letting Go."
However, the album truly comes into its
own with the rapturous guitar work on the cut "Moving On," which also
features charming lyrics and a pitch-perfect vocal performance. "Heart
In Your Mind" shows the softer side of Emory Quinn (EQ), but it is the
"country-licious" cut titled "Finds Danger" which is the album's
biggest surprise. The syrupy sweet melody is deliciously enchanting.
"Holes Through The Windows" is a near perfect bar sing-a-long song that
offers elements of Red Dirt and honky tonk mixed with tinges of
Britpop vocal interludes. The Texas country track "Tear Down The Walls"
is a Chris Knight-esque track that is the best song on the entire
album. The mysterious and slightly dark lyrics are deeply satisfying.
"When I Dream" shares much of the same charm, except with a faster beat
and more uplifting lyrics. Likewise, the last song "Falling Down
Again" is immensely hummable, and radio program managers should
consider the track for their playlists for a song that could be a
multi-genre radio chart hit.
For a bunch of country boys from Texas A&M who managed to move from dorms and houses to start a band, "See You At The Next Light"
is a major musical accomplishment. In fact, even a Julliard grad would
be proud to have created such a nuanced album filled with an array of
musical influences. So EQ, when you finally get to the next light, we
hope you'll remember to deliver a new album along with another dollop of
Lone Star charm.
