Single review: CAITLIN KRISKO & THE BROADCAST – Everything I Need

Written in response to the audience reaction on their last UK tour, American roots rockers Caitlin Krisko And The Broadcast drop their fourth single in as many months – Everything I need from their forthcoming album Heirloom.

From the opening chords and guitar notes you can tell it’s another winner. This time a mid tempo soul groove, which kind of completes the circle of country rock, rock and blues, all of which they do so damned well.

It is produced by guitarist Aaran Austin, and he knows where he is going with this from the start, building the song slowly with a dense backing of guitars, organ, bass and drums, in a great Muscle Shoals tradition and is a testament to the bands evolution. And the icing on the cake, Caitlin’s iron lunged delivery, think Beth Hart.

Caitlin says of the single “it came from the nights on tour in the UK when the audience was the heartbeat of the room. Those shows reminded me that no matter how far from home I am, music always finds a way to make us family”. It’s clever how she has worded the song so it could be about a new lover too.

They are touring the UK again from 30th November to 13th of December starting off on the Graham Harding Stage at Planet Rockstock in Porthcawl Wales, then going on to Newcastle, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Sheffield, Leeds, Bromley, Wolverhampton, Coulsden, Sittingbourne, Bristol and finishing in London. But no Manchester!!! Guys, please, next time?

They are releasing a limited edition six track EP to sell exclusively on the tour, called Keepsake, and as the band says every Heirloom begins as a Keepsake. So go see them, buy Everything I Need, buy Keepsake, buy Heirloom when its released in January, and you will be one happy bunny, unless of course you are an obsessive prog fan, in which case you won’t be. ****
