THE HAYMAKERS is a four piece band that hails from Somerville, MA. This band is a pure soulful rock and rock band that has clever lyrics and melodies that will have you wanting more.
I must admit, I feel a bit of a vibe there like I'm listening to the early sounds of Jason and The Scorchers and other bands. Believe me, it's not a bad thing at all. The band is: Ron Vassegh-Lead guitar; Jon Duncklee-Rhythm guitar; Chris Goward-Bass guitar and Paul Delmonico-Vocals, drums. This 5 song EP was Engineered, Mixed and Mastered by Dave Westner and Produced by The Haymakers.
WHEN THE WORLD STOPS kicks off the EP with a supercool song that is a great pop rock song with a great melody and lyrics. The song has some really great hooks that will have you dancing all over the place. Come on everyone, sing along. ANOTHER HEART ATTACK is quite a title for a song and will have you wondering, what? The song sure could be a Weird Al song when you think about it. The melody and lyrics will really get to you. I love it.
GET ME TO FRIDAY has that early punk rock feel from the '60's which is really cool. The melody and lyrics are right on the money. The song reminds me of the band called, The Castaways. Remember them? Great song. YOU LIED once again has that early 60's rock band feel, which I think is great because you very seldom hear music like that anymore. This song would make the New Colony Six proud.
SAY IT AGAIN brings that EP to an end. This song will definitely get to you too.I love the fact they are a super tight band that keeps it simple, but have really great melodies and lyrics. I love this band a lot for various reasons. I'd like to THANK ROB for being in touch. You can find the band at: Bandcamp, Soundcloud, Spotify, Reverbnation, You tube and other sites. ROCK ON, JIM ALLFORD [STEEL NOTES MAGAZINE.]
