Sandy & the Wild Wombats - Wanderlust 2018




  Sandy and The Wild Wombats are on a mission and that's a good thing for us. This rockin' outfit just keeps getting better, delivering  top shelf rockabilly/rock n roll at every turn.The band's latest and 3rd offering; "Wanderlust" is proof of that.This puppy snarls and bites with 16 tracks including  a hidden bonus track that will definitely colour you impressed.The album throws up 14 stout and kool originals and  is bookend with 2 different versions of a cover of "I Love Rock And  Roll". It's also a great mix of straight up rockabilly to sharp rock n roll.They also add shots of blues and country into an already delicious dish. From  slow burners to all out rockers this disc has something for everyone.Highlights include: " Ride With The Rockers", "Wanderlust", "Girls Girls Girls", "Come On Let's Rock and "Tight Leatherette".
       

    One can't help but like Sandy & the Wild Wombats and "Wanderlust " only strengthens that.This is a strong ,well written and balanced  album that is strongly executed.You really should throw down some of your  hard earned cash down on this one.Highly recommended!!

Sandy & The Wild Wombats - Devoted To Rock 'n' Roll 2017



Back in 2015 Sandy and The Wild Wombats firmly establish themselves with the release of their debut album "The Girl Can't Help It". Sure it was all covers but it was loaded with some freakin' sweet interpretations.It also helps that this is a stout outfit that knows how to deliver.This is rockabilly that has been described as dirty, wild, has an edge and is fronted by some smokin' hot vocals.Now the band's follow up album " Devoted To Rock'n'Roll"  is here and man have they upped the anti.This puppy comes snarling in with 12 originals that with the exception of 1 ballad, really rock out . It's 50's rockabilly/ rock n roll that pushes into neo-rockabilly with shades of blues and country thrown' in too boot.There is also a hidden track that's a honky tonk number.Highlights include : "I Gotta Move", "Cure Your Ill", "Rockabilly  Man, and "Hey Hey Hey".
       Overall "Devoted To Rock 'n' Roll" is one impressive disc that is top shelf. It's fun, aggressive and packs a punch. If Sandy & The Wild Wombats weren't on your radar before they should be now .This is a damn good album by a band  that's on a mission. Highly Recommended!
