\"TheNew Super group The Dead Daisies has just released their new four song EP entitled Face I Love<\/em>. The band has just wrapped up a tour with Bad Company\/Lynyrd Skynyrd Tour and is currently taking the U.S. by storm on the Kiss\/Def Leppard Tour.<\/p>\n

The Dead Daisies is comprised of Dizzy Reed of GNR on keyboards, Richard Fortus of GNR on guitar, Jon Stevens on vocals, David Lowy on guitar, Marco Mendoza on bass, and Brian Tichy on drums. The Dead Daisies have a sound that is a mixture of Buckcherry meets The Black Crowes. The Dead Daisies take a page out of their classic rock heroes and infuse a bold new sound that is bluesy and riveting.<\/p>\n

On the title track Face I Love<\/em>, Jon Stevens has a sultry voice that is very strong. The keyboards of Dizzy Reed dominate the entire track. Second track \u201cYour Karma\u201d has a Rolling Stones vibe. The guitar intro has a southern vibe. The Dead Daises bring back guitar solos, as the band loves to jam. \u201cAngel In Your Eyes\u201d features the strong vocals of Jon Stevens. This song has a southern flavor that is reminiscent of 38 Special meets Lynyrd Skynyrd and possibly the best track on the EP. The band ends with the \u201cHelter Skelter\u201d cover. <\/p>\n

All in all, the EP is refreshing with a throwback to the great classic rock era. If you love the classic era of The Rolling Stones meets Lynryd Skynyrd, this album is for you. Be sure to get to the venue early for Kiss\/Dep Leppard and The Dead Daisies. <\/p>\n
