About

Intelligent, countrified Folk Rock displays its roots as proudly as a banyan tree. Love Riot's songs are bold enough to tackle the affairs of the heart without resigning themselves to morbid gloom. Before the melancholy mounts, the violin cuts in for a lively reel or the mandolin player brightens things up with a jig. Strong, confident female vocals and gifted playing all around.
