"An ambitious but authentic trek through a multitude of musical terrains"

Orlando six-piece Thomas Wynn & The Believers take the classic soulful rock of yesteryear (think The Band et al) and place it firmly in a contemporary setting.

Their third album is an ambitious but authentic trek through a multitude of musical terrains including Americana, soul, folk and blues.

Visceral tracks like We Could All Die Screaming and Mountain Fog are rooted in traditional rock'n'roll, while the gospel leanings of I Don't Regret and the title track, plus the swampy southern vibe of You Can't Hurt Me, are all tied together by Wynn's expressive vocals and his band's innate chemistry and strong musicianship.
