Eleyet McConnell stays true to their roots on this groovy and infectious piece of classic rock and country music that’s powerfully from the heartland. The duo, with Angie on vocals brings this soulful and bluesy characteristic that merges and blends so effortlessly with Chris’ bass work to craft this eclectic mixture of rock and country that’s wholly a sound of their own. I don’t have a lot but I’m gettin by” becomes the focal point of the entire record, a clarion call to everyone who feels like there’s just so much weighing them down, so many obstacles perennially appearing in front of every which move they make, but still persevere amidst it all.
Things may look bleak consistently, but it’s all about just gettin by at the end of the day and McConnell have put together an anthem to represent that eternal feeling so damned well.
