Whether it’s the steady, small-group grooves set to a high simmer or the streetwise savvy of the lyrics, these elements are key ingredients for the overall success of this set.  Punctuated by pinpoint work from guitarist Dan Sumner, this tough four-piece lineup means business from the start.  Leader/keyboardist/vocalist Doug Duffy delivers solid reads on razor-sharp lyric sets on standouts including “Broken Heart and Empty Hand”, “Better By Me” and the super-sly “Axe Jes Rite”.
