Rushlow
- Right Now
Album Review by: Jim Weaver
Tim
Rushlow is back, and this time he brought his band! I know Tim probably
doesn't want a bunch of references and comparisons between his new band
and his old band (Little Texas) but I can't help myself. The new band is
called Rushlow and Tim is the frontman, in the old band Tim was the
frontman. Plus when you get a group of great musicians and put that
together with tight harmonies in a modern high energy country band,
saying that this incarnation "kinda-sorta" sounds like his old
band just makes sense. Also, when I say the band reminds me of Tim's
former band that's a compliment in my mind because I loved the music
that came out of Little Texas. OK, I'll stop the comparisons now.
Tim has gathered a fine group of musicians and singers to form Rushlow,
they are;
Tim Rushlow - Vocals, Guitar
Billy Welch - Keyboard, Vocals
Doni Harris - Acoustic Guitar, Vocals
Rich Redmond - Drums
Tully Kennedy - Bass Guitar, Vocals
Kurt Allison - Lead Guitar
Rushlow
started working out their material and their sound back where it really
counts... in the clubs, bars and festivals. You know the crowd, the
instant feedback bunch you'll find in Toby Keith's video from "I
Love This Bar", that's the folks. They will set you straight quick
when they don't like something and hug your neck and tell you they love
you when they do. Tim and the guys hooked up with Lyric Street Records
and after they got their first Top 20 hit with "I Can't Be You
Friend", now it's time to release their first CD.
I
enjoyed the new album titled Right Now very much, (I hate
to say this but I'm going to anyway... here goes) if you liked Little
Texas' music... then you will want to give Rushlow a shot in your CD
player Right Now. Sorry, the pun could not be avoided.

Website
Review by Jim Weaver:
Rushlowband.com
Not a bad looking site at all, however it's a little large and might
take a while to load on a dial-up modem. Content is good, plenty of
information for each member of the band, lots of pictures, both on-stage
and with fans. They do have a Fan Club page and a links page but could
use a message board. You can find tour info but you have to really look
for it, it would be nice if there was a link on the main menu for the
latest tour information. Overall it's a nice site but if they asked me,
(and they haven't) I would suggest scaling it down some, make the tables
fit the browser screen, make the links images smaller and the main
picture, all would lead to a shorter load time and still look great.
Rating:
Pretty good.
