ALBUM REVIEW OF "ALMOST HOME" BY GHOST HOUNDS (8/10)

Gibson Records

Producer: Thomas Tull

For this Nashville septet, it’s all about tradition, vivid imagery, and storytelling. Guitarist Thomas Tull’s words and lead vocalist SAVNT’s diverse and expressive delivery ignite all 11 songs with zeal. Their modern roots rock sound is mixed with country and blues. Highlights include the Stones-ish “She Runs Hot,” SAVNT and Patty Griffin’s duet on “Long Ride Home,” the emotionally riveting “You’ll Never Find Me,” and the familial and familiar “House A Home.” Their musical wheelhouse is boundless.
