Lead by the inimitable vocal stylings of Ms. Imogen Trowell, Mo Trowell & The Delivery are very proud to present their debut EP, The Suspect Way.
The band themselves spent many years treading the boards in various popular local indie rock, garage and punk bands (Brother Brick, Gilgamesh and Sugar Kane to name but a few) before discovering a common passion for traditional country and blues and have since spent several years developing a unique modern sound that’s steeped in that tradition. Three members of the Delivery actually honed their country skills in a well-known Johnny Cash tribute band before deciding to step out on their own.
The boys then stumbled upon Imogen by accident performing acoustically to a half drunk, half empty room on a cold, wet and lonely Tuesday night. The rest, as they say, is history. Her dark, yet sickly sweet voice is the perfect match for their gruff exteriors, interiors and sound.
It’s a sound that owes as much to country music legends Hank Williams and Johnny Cash, as it is does to the Rolling Stones and even seminal 80’s reprobates like the Gun Club and the Beasts of Bourbon.
The Suspect Way features 6 original tracks plus the band’s cover of the Neil Young classic, Fuckin’ Up.
After quietly building a following on the local scene throughout 2009, the band decided that it was time to put their unique sound to tape. The EP was recorded at Swingin’ Door studios with Golden Guitar winning Australian country music guitar legend Stuie French manning the desk. It is the first release on the new Stanley Records imprint. They plan on following it up with an album before year’s end.
The group is about to hit the road in support of the release. But if you want manufactured pop music disguised in cowboy costumes, we suggest that you look elsewhere. In fact, take your Toby Keith records and fuck right off. Call it country, call it blues, call it rock, call it whatever you like. Alt-country is a term that’s definitely in vogue these days but we like to think that it’s just great music.
