MATT PARKERS & THE DEACONS are a powerhouse trio that hails from Myrtle Beach, SC. The band is one very strong pop/rock and roll band that has great melodies and lyrics. Keep your ears out for this band, because they are superb and then some.
 
The band is: MATT PARKER- Guitar, lead vocals:ADDISON OWENS-Bass guitar, back-up vocals and Jeremy Davis-Drums, back-up vocals. This 8 song CD was Recorded, Mixed and Mastered by Brian McKenzie.
 
DRAMA QUEEN kicks off this CD so get ready to have a blast. The guitar sound is as raw as ever as the vocals jump right into the song. This song has the greatest melody and lyrics, plus, a lead guitar that will blow your socks off.
 
ALLRIGHT is quite a great, heavy duty song with a funky feel that is so sweet once you get into the groove. This one brings out the Prince guitar work by Matt that is really impressive. Hold onto your seat for this one. HOW MANY MORE TIMES brings out his  Jimmy Page guitar work in Matt as the band holds solid on every note.I must admit, his vocals sound a lot like Rob Thomas.
 
NOT AROUND HERE is another sweet pop song that will grab your attention from the start. The chords are simple and sweet as the lyrics fit right into the beat.The bridge fits right into the melody as the band doesn't miss a beat. This band is tight as ever. TYPHOON BLUES brings this amazing Cd to an end. I must admit, the harmonica is quite a treat to hear. This song would make George Thorogood and others quite happy.
