Song of the Day - August 5, 2005

The Moaners are just two girls, who make great rock and roll. Melissa Swingle, formerly of Trailer Bride, sings and plays guitar in a down and dirty style. Laura King, a veteran of the Baltimore punk scene, plays drums and sings background vocals. The track "Flannery Said" just plain rocks. I love the high pitched slide guitar in harmony with the great background vocals. If you like the Black Keys or the Drive-By Truckers, who they have toured with, you are sure to like The Moaners.
