Ever wonder if a duo can really sound like a full band? Little Hurricane has always made that perfectly evident. Their music is usually raw, edgy, dirty blues-infused rock and roll. This little duo is one of Vodka’s favorites. If you have reason to doubt that, then take a look at the posts I’ve featured from them. Like many artists, they’ve been a bit quiet over the past couple of years… for good reasons. The pandemic surely played a part, but so did the fact…
Read MoreOne of Vodka’s favorite rock couples, Little Hurricane, had a new long-player in 2019, and it slipped beneath the radar for some reason. Enter That Woman and Poor Me from their August 2019 long-player, Love Luck! There is no duo in rock and roll that has the big sound of Little Hurricane!

Read MoreIt was a great year in music and Vodka takes pride in knowing that at least one of our long followed artists, Courtney Barnett, was nominated in the Best New Artist category for a Grammy. She deserves it! We have followed her since the wonderful History Eraser posted over 3 years ago-from her singles, to her EPs and even her duet work. Her humor and edgy guitar work make her unique in the indie-rock field and who better to win a Grammy for Best New Artist? We will see how the voting ends up in 2016, but let’s hope she…
Read MoreLittle Hurricane is not new to Vodka, making their first appearance over two years go with the scrappy two-piece rock and roll of Give Em Hell, followed in short succession by Haunted Heart and finally about a year later with Crocodile Tears, all from their stellar debut long-player, Homewrecker, released in 2012. Sheep In Wolves Clothes is from the duo’s latest long-player, Gold Fever (2014), and punctuates why I love this group so much. It’s emotive rock, played and sung…
