Press

“Jeff O’Connor (Bakelite Army, plenty of others) is returning to Racine with his Bakelite Buddy Derek Crawford in a wickedly awesome band called Rivals of the Peacemaker. The rocked up outlaw country, Americana band is sure to slay audiences with even the tiniest smidge of good taste. Tight rythms, kick-ass leads, deep grooves, well-crafted lyrics and awesome vocals are the band’s calling cards. Need anything else? No, didn’t think so. Come on out, grab a beer and wipe that drool son. ”

— Paddy Finneran, Scene262

“Mention and cover Photo”

— Alaina Buzas, Skyline

"There’s no doubt that the Chicago duo will impress with their sweet, sultry Americana tuneage on a warm summer night. So, grab a drink, get a good spot up front and take a load off..."

— Loud Loop Press
