Our Take

In a world full of suit-wearing corporate musicians, Mike Dillon boldly carries the title of "Suitcase Man" on his latest album, a quirky and eclectic mix of sounds that is sure to leave listeners scratching their heads (in a good way).

Dillon's playful approach to music is evident from the get-go, with tracks like "Traveling Blues" and "Lost Luggage" taking listeners on a musical journey full of unexpected twists and turns. His ability to seamlessly blend jazz, funk, and experimental soundscapes is nothing short of impressive, and the result is a truly unique listening experience.

One standout track on the album is "Baggage Claim Boogie," a funky and infectious tune that will have you tapping your feet and shaking your hips in no time. Dillon's energetic vocals and masterful percussion work shine on this track, showcasing his undeniable talent and charisma.

But don't let the playful nature of the album fool you - there is a depth and complexity to Dillon's music that reveals itself upon closer inspection. Tracks like "Carry-On Blues" and "Delayed Departure" delve into themes of longing and wanderlust, adding a layer of emotional depth to an album that is already bursting with personality.

Overall, "Suitcase Man" is a delightful and refreshing listen that is sure to put a smile on your face. Mike Dillon may not be your traditional musician, but his unapologetically quirky style is a breath of fresh air in a music industry that can sometimes take itself too seriously. So pack your bags, grab your passport, and let Mike Dillon take you on a musical journey unlike any other.
