Busted Gut…Listen on Spotify

Everything I Like…Listen on Spotify

Jackie…Listen on Spotify

Prepare yourself for a doom folk explosion! What else could you call the spectacle that is a one-man band performing with improvised and salvaged instruments? Washing over your ears from a hot mattress in Massachusetts comes this sustainable rhythm and blues traveler. Let loose your dogs and chickens, it’s about to get turnt on this here homestead! I think…anyway…The Suitcase Junket!

Calm pickings with a bend here and there, Busted Gut feels like an old mile-long dirt driveway. More than anything, it’s an old man yelling at the TV station. And I’m right there next to him tenderly nodding my head.

Everything I Like could have been a Fine Young Cannibals song, except for the cultural references of course. This was a reasonably popular song for a while…certainly the most popular of these three. It’s got a good rhythm and it’s easy to sing along…at night, mostly.

Ah, the deep rolling tones of Jackie. She hops along drawing nurishment from the deep roots of rock and roll. Short and full of pep with the infectious corruption of high distortion guitar…as far as I can tell anyway.

Okay, I may have said some things back there that were out of line. Listen to these songs and form your own opinion. If you like what you hear, maybe try to find more from an ethical and sustainable source. The Suitcase Junket is on Bandcamp – bandcamp.com/thesuitcasejunket.

If you’d like more information about this one guy, check out his official website – thesuitcasejunket.com. There you can find everything you need…merch, music, bio, and links to his YouTube videos. The bio section is enlightening and entertaining as it tells this guy’s story. If you’re suspicious of the link I used for the official website, you can go straight to the YouTube channel – @makingwhatiwant. Yes, I told you…one-man band!
