The new song from Roxercat starts off with an emotive guitar line that seems like it is almost weeping, much like the state of the world that was during one of the most dreaded years of human civilization – 2020. What follows is straight-up rock and roll reminiscent of artists like SRV and LedZep.

Each and every band member is an expert on their instrument, and boy it shows, and how! Be that singer/guitarist Price Jones’ carefully crafted chordal progressions, guitarist Stan Lassiter’s raging guitar solos or bassist Bill Francis’s groovy lines. Each and every instrument finds its own space in the mix and individual sections to shine.

‘2020’ is almost a progressive track. Moving from sorrow to rage, to acceptance (as the band states ‘that’s just life’), the mood of the track is constantly volatile. Roxercat has managed to create a gorgeous piece of art that is a testament to their exceptional songwriting skills.

Roxercat is a progressive take on Rock n Roll

The latest release from Roxercat is a unique new sound that has perhaps been lost in time. With a captivating narrative and a production that is worthy of the current generation, Roxercat takes a peek into the history of rock music and borrows influences from the greats. Owing to its diverse soundscape, ‘2020’ could be a perfect fit for dramas like ‘The Pursuit of Happyness’ or even disaster documentaries like Chernobyl: The Lost Tapes.

In conclusion, Roxercat – 2020 is a track that fans of indie music and rock and roll aficionados alike would both enjoy equally. The band is surely one of the best new acts to emerge from the Nashville underground music circuit. ‘2020′ is the concluding track for Roxercat’s debut EP ‘Pearls’ which was released in 2023.
