KLB receives glowing review in Blues Revue Magazine
May 27, 2008 01:27:34 PM Posted By: Kris Lager
Transient received a great review in Blues Revue Magazine this month, here is the review below! Thanks to Genevieve Williams, who wrote the article, for your support and kindness!
"On record, the Kris Lager Band is so unassuming that it might take you a few songs to realize they're crack musicians with substantial songwriting abilities, rock-solid musicianship, and the kind of exacting sensibility that makes every song distinctive (and distinctly theirs). Then again, would you expect anything less from the band Indigenous frontman Mato Nanji hired for a nationwide tour? Those who reside on either coast might be used to thinking of the Midwest as flyover country, but "Transient" makes crystal-clear that the interior U.S. is a musical crossroads. The Kris Lager Band has a bluesy, rootsy base but builds on it using materials from zydeco, country, gospel, and Latin music. It's not variety for variety's sake, either: The band inhabits the borderland of genre boundaries so comfortably, it's clear that, to them, this is home. That kind of boundary crossing gives "Transient" a cosmopolitan flair that complements its friendly, down-home sensibility. Without sounding preachy or condescending, "I Got the Devil" and "My Own Worst Enemy" detail the darker ills to which humanity falls prey, evidence that Lager and company can serve up gourmet home cooking while respecting the intelligence of their listeners." --- Genevieve Williams

KLB tops PS Blues' top 5 albums of '06
Jan 4, 2007 12:00:00 AM Posted By: Kris Lager
Written by Rick Galusha: Kris Lager Band, Roots Revival - this is so much better than 99% of the CDs I get that are supposedly 'national' caliber - and believe me, I get'em all. KLB has really blossomed in the studio and this album is among the finest electric "blues" albums, on ANY label, released this year.
