Our Take

Ah, the Merced Blue Notes, a band as charmingly offbeat as their name suggests. Their latest album, "Get Your Kicks On Route 99", is a delightful romp through the highways and byways of Americana, sprinkled with a healthy dose of retro vibes and a touch of modern whimsy.

From the moment the opening track, "On the Road Again", kicks off with its infectious groove and jaunty lyrics, you know you're in for a wild ride. The Merced Blue Notes effortlessly blend blues, jazz, and rockabilly to create a sound that is uniquely their own.

Tracks like "Rumble at the Roadhouse" and "Cruisin' with the Top Down" transport you to a simpler, sun-soaked era where the only thing that matters is the open road and a killer guitar riff. The band's infectious energy is impossible to resist, and before you know it, you'll find yourself tapping your toes and humming along.

But don't let the carefree vibes fool you - the Merced Blue Notes are a tight-knit group of musicians who know their stuff. The arrangements are slick, the production is crisp, and the musicianship is top-notch.

So, hop in your imaginary convertible, roll down the windows, and let the Merced Blue Notes take you on a musical journey you won't soon forget. "Get Your Kicks On Route 99" is a rollicking good time from start to finish, and a must-listen for music lovers of all persuasions.
