Chris Cacavas and Junk Yard Love - Chris Cacavas And Junk Yard Love
Review by Aadhil Fasaludheen
Chris Cacavas and Junk Yard Love's self-titled album is a mesmerizing collection of songs that showcases the band's exceptional musicianship and Cacavas' songwriting prowess. The album is a mix of rock, blues, and Americana, with each track offering something unique and compelling.
The album opens with "Dreams of the Sea," a haunting ballad that sets the tone for the rest of the album. Cacavas' vocals are raw and emotive, and the band's instrumentation is understated yet powerful. "Hey Operator" is a standout track that features a catchy guitar riff and Cacavas' witty lyrics.
Throughout the album, Junk Yard Love's musicianship shines through. Guitarist Dan Stuart's solos are particularly impressive, and the rhythm section of bassist Tony Martinez and drummer Michael Peffer provides a solid foundation for each song.

This band showed me the other side of band life when they played -on tour!- in a cellar café in Nijmegen. Was so utterly boring & more y on energy, nowhere near the record that had this song on it, I thought pfew. There you are, over from the (Western States) playing for 12 ½ half drunk guys...
Got to be more to it
Album s still an obscure diamond, though !
