The New Brutarians - "Del Rio Way"


Today must be Adam Turkel Day in Faster and Louder Land! I just weighed in on the Beatings retrospective, and now I've got something new for your ears. "Del Rio Way" is the latest single from The New Brutarians. The track features Alan MP from Juvenile Wrecks on lead guitar, Robbie Rist on drums on bass, and Greg Shankland on piano. What we've got here is a quintessential glam rock blues ballad in the neighborhood of The Dogs D'Amour with hints of '70s Stones. This song is pure heart and soul and finds Adam in fine form both lyrically and vocally. And of course the recording sounds amazing. Arriving on the heels of the hard-rocking "Tonight's Your Night (Tonight)", "Del Rio Way" takes things in a mellower, more reflective direction. Both of these songs should be turning up on vinyl later this year courtesy of Sioux Records. For now, enjoy this poignant track on your favorite streaming platform!
