Listening to ‘Roadrunner’ feels like you’re in the middle of a Western film. The acoustic driven and latin rock inspired tune from ‘Deliriously Serious’ is simply loaded with a suave swagger brought out by a vocal performance that exudes coolness. You feel like an outlaw, hearing the story relayed to you from this New Mexico based outfit that have a way with setting the mood. The incorporation of a slew of external ambient elements and external instruments over and above the acoustic add layers to the mood. Even the vocal harmonies, a great back and forth behind two voices on this record just give an even more resonance to this overarching outlaw energy that comes through in droves.
When the ‘Roadrunner, roadrunner, where you’re running to’ hits you find yourself thinking you’re the star of your own outlaw journey.
