Press
““Itching for a hearty slice of old-school funk merged with vintage soul, rock and blues? Pick up Harmonisizer, the nine-track CD by Dallas' Tweed EQ, and scan right to "Stop!" Think Taj Mahal meets Smokey Robinson, as the band's vocalist and the tune's songwriter Paisley Ascott says. Winston Mingus' drums and percussion work drive the song, while Goose Trimmson's slap-happy bass and plenty of scratchy electric guitar from Sputnik Jones and Ascott make you move.
The vibe of Tweed EQ pulls from the '70s, whether the group is experimenting with R&B, rock or blues. In fact, just one listen to Harmonisizer and Isaac Hayes, War, Led Zeppelin, Van Morrison and Jeff Beck all immediately come to mind. Other standouts on the disc include "The Hawk," "The Drought" and "Soul Soothin'."
