The Tom Collins

The Tom Collins
Daylight Tonight
Terminus Records

Blending classic rock hooks with alternative rock melodies, The Tom Collins is not only a drink your people favored way back when, but a rootsy rock trio from Georgia. Fran Capitanelli ably fronts the band on vocals and guitar, and on tunes like Hot and Cold the band’s sound seems appropriate for a juke-box on a Saturday night at the roadhouse.

There are more than a few licks and forays into classic Southern rock territory etched by bands like Lynyrd Skynyrd and the Outlaws. But the tunes overall are more contemporary sounding with bright vocals and faster tempos. And with rock fans now spanning generations, mom and dad might enjoy The Tom Collins as much as the kids, and vice versa.

Favorite Track: Track 5, “Talk You Down ”
