A Track A Day

Categorized: Blues, Rock

One of my friends recently saw Alberta Cross live in London and recommended I take a listen to them. And am I glad he did, as the band is awesome! Volume’s Voice could become a regular feature on my blog. But back to the band.

Alberta Cross released their debut full-length album in 2009, and have been toured the UK and USA extensively, opening for bands such as “The Dave Matthews Band” and “Them Crooked Vultures”. Their sound is a refreshing blues-influenced brand of rock music, most akin to The Kings of Leon. Other cited influences are as diverse as Neil Young, The Band, Sonic Youth, Nick Cave and Motown. Alberta Cross are fronted by Swedish-Anglo duo Petter Ericson Stakee and Terry Wolfers, were formed in London, and are now based in Brooklyn (according to an interview the band did with Inflatable Ferret, their name is an anagram – of what, I don’t know…).
