GIANT WHISTLE - A 4 PIECE ROCK BAND WITH A BLUESY EDGE. THERE WERE SOME GOOD QUALITIES AND NOT SO GOOD QUALITIES ABOUT THIS BAND. THEY HAVE AN EDGY SOUND THAT IS A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT DUE TO THROATY TYPE OF VOCALS. ALL MEMBERS ARE TALENTED ESPECIALLY THE LEAD GUITAR......HE STOOD OUT WITH SOME IMPRESSIVE RIFFS OF HIS OWN. I FELT THE BAND WAS NOT ALL ON THE SAME PAGE. AT TIMES , THE SOUND WAS STEVIE RAY VAUGHN TO COLLECTIVE SOUL .....NO DOUBT A COOL INTERPRETIVE SOUND TO WORK ON. THIS BAND IS ROUGH AROUND THE EDGES.......VOCALLY. AS THE OLD TEACHER SAID , " SING TO THE BACK OF THE ROOM " , THE VOCALS WERE MAXED , SOMETHING I HAVE NEVER DONE BEFORE , AND I STRUGGLED HEARING THE VOCALS. LOW NOTES GOOD .......HIGH NOTES.......NOT SO GOOD. THE MAIN LEAD SINGER HAS A COOL VOICE . IT'S LOW , THROATY , BLUESY SOUND IS COOL AND THEY SHOULD HARNESS THAT. SINGING INTO THE MIC WHILE PLAYING GUITAR NEEDS TO BE WORKED ON. VOCAL COACHING COULD BE THE MAIN INGREDIENT FOR BOTH SINGERS TO PUSH THIS BAND TO THE NEXT LEVEL. HAVING FUN......THIS IS KEY ! NO BANTAR WITH THE AUDIENCE........IT IS EVEN MORE UNCOMFORTABLE WHEN TUNING GUITARS AND FIXING EQUIPMENT. SAY SOMETHING....A JOKE , NAME OF THE NEXT SONG.....ANYTHING. LIVE SHOWS SHOULD CREATE MOMENTUM FOR FUTURE SHOWS. OVERALL , I LIKED THEM , BUT SOME KINKS NEED TO BE WORKED OUT.
THE ANGRY JUKEBOX :
" THIS BAND NEEDS TO PRACTICE A LITTLE MORE . NO REACTION WHAT SO EVER FROM ANY OF THEM - DEAD SILENCE IN BETWEEN SONGS IS THE WORST , AT LEAST SAY THANK YOU WHEN PEOPLE CLAP FOR YOU. MUSICALLY , THEY SOUND PRETTY GOOD , VOCALLY NEEDS TO BE MUCH BETTER.
