Road Food

The Guess Who

A weary, soulful collection of mid-70s rock. Honky-tonk piano and gritty vocals capture the restless fatigue of life on the highway.

Find on Amazon

The perfect soundtrack for when you've been driving so long the radio starts feeling like a friend.

A weary but soulful reflection on life in transit, blending pop-rock hooks with a restless, bluesy fatigue.
