Single: Beltway Laps(e), from the album, Transcontinental Drift
BIO:
Lyricists’ Watch is music with a message, indeed, many messages: from the dangers of drinking and driving, to the fundamental similarities across economic and class lines, to the necessity of governmental bureaucracy to “keep the tyrants from hangin’ round.”
The new album, Regreso Del Mal Rock, unapologetically brings back !BAD ROCK!
