The Mascot Theory - Hand Me Down Miracles
Strong songs backed by muscular musicianship, big-shouldered rodeo, “Miracles,” flexes in impeccable country-rock confidence reveling in rootsy jubilations. Well-known players from the Madison area, TMT took their top-tapping anthems, bittersweet ballads and locomotive folk to Nashville and returned with a solid, brawny album that stands tall tackling honey-roasted hoe-downs and scorching homesick blues with lightning-swift vigor. Trading in lonesome leads, reflective duets and cavalry-charging quartets all four musicians sing, adding to the already talented craftsmanship of trademark licks and rhythmic riffs carrying sincere lyrics packing battle-scars and heartache inside twice-told tales. Catch the charming barn-burners November 8th and help out a good cause when TMT along with five other ace bands play Madison’s High Noon Saloon’s Flannel Fest to benefit the Keep Wisconsin Warm Fund.
