California Reboot by Speedtwinn (MR Records)

Speedtwinn is the superb collaboration featuring Gary Twinn of The International Swingers and Bob “Derwood” Andrews of Generation X infamy. The two Londoners now reside in the Golden State – and contained within California Reboot is a massive 18-song alternative country rock explosion destined to enrapture music lovers all across the world!

The sonic adventures of California Reboot begin with the super infectious Crazy Ann followed by the boogie-woogie inflections of That’s The Way. She’s Online combines the timely with the timeless, a kickass country song about a girl addicted to the wonders of the worldwide web. And the memorable tunes keep on arriving, with standouts such as Heartful Of Love, Last White Buffalo, and The Ballad of Johnny Clash.

The Spaceball Ricochet T. Rex cover is especially imaginative. And those of us who reside in Los Angeles are sure to fully appreciate the honky-tonk reveries found within 101 Ventura Freeway Blues. Here’s hoping Speedtwinn bring it all to us live in the future. In the meantime, check out California Reboot by Speedtwinn – destined to become your next favorite auditory addiction.
