New Track: Little Hurricane

I was recently introduced to Little Hurricane, a perfectly awesome “dirty blues” band that actually released their first and only album last May.

While I’m a huge fan of their entire album, “Homewrecker,” the first song I heard and one of my favorites by the San Diego duo is “Haunted Heart.”

They have a simple rock ‘n’ roll meets the blues sound. The bluesey rock ‘n’ roll guitar is a simplistic kind of heavy which meets some raw, impressive vocals singing mysterious lyrics.

My initial thought was that they’d be from down South somewhere like New Orleans.  I was surprised to learn they were from southern CA.  However, while their lyrics and blues sound give off a southern vibe, the guitar and the way the entire album sounds gives off a very California-indie style.

I’ve been jamming on this band for the past week now and am not sick of the album yet.  Two of my other favorites are “Crocodile Tears” and “Tear Bucket.”
