Suzie Vinnick: Shake the Love Around

Suzie Vinnick is a triple threat here, singing, playing bass and electric guitar and even writing the material on this rootsie delight. She teams around with a rotation of Johnny Johnson/sax, Gary Craig/dr, Mark Lalama/key, Colin Linden/slg and Kevin Briet/sgl, using her earthy voice to perfection on Memphis swampers like “Happy as Hell” and “All I Wanna Do” as well as the 70s blues rockers “Crying A River For You.” The team knows how to deliver a funky backbeat as they shuffle on “Watch Me” and “Lean Into the Light” while Vinnick gets cozy on the delta porch as she tells as story on “The Golden Rule” and on John Fogerty’s folksy A Hundred and Ten in the Shade.” She can honky tonk with the best on “Beautiful Little Fool” as well as going heartfelt on “Drift Away.” Six strings of fun!
