Album Notes & Community Reviews

Stepping out from his role as guitarist for the Welsh jam-band Man, Deke Leonard delivers a surprisingly roots-oriented second solo album. Infused with pub rock swagger and subtle country-rock phrasing, the record maintains a laid-back, infectious energy completely distinct from the sprawling psychedelic improvisations of his primary group.
