Milwaukee distaff rockabilly foursome
Crazy Rocket Fuel make their retro country rockin' danceable while playing up
bad girl imagery. Some of the language and metaphor they employ would surely
have gotten Wanda Jackson a radio ban in her '50s heyday. These gals, however,
work their sass factor hard as they would any guy who would dare step up to
them.
Like current country
singer Miranda Lambert, they're not above telling of how they would give a
cheating man a taste of hot lead, but they add the local color of landing in
the Taycheedah women's prison. The band, especially singer Kari Bloom, is
especially fetching when the attitude plays into more developed lyrical
narrative. On the rare occasions when a fella actually captures her positive
attention, Bloom emotes with enough tenderness to make it believable, too. With
custom car culture's affection for both rockabilly and tough chicks, these
ladies could break out from genre pigeonholing in some crazily ingenious ways.
Rocket Fuel celebrates the release of its debut CD, Feb. 27
at Kochanski's Beer Hall.

Don't forget my beautiful daughter Ginny's excellent song writing that adds snap, crackle and pop to THE FUEL. 2-26-2010
cheers to that!
Ginny writes the songs that make the whole world sing. She writes the songs, she writes the songs :)
Yes Ginny writes the songs that makes the whole world sing but KARI is the "chosen one" ;-)
