Remember Betty Won’t? Four years have flown by since the rock ‘n’ roll collective from Minneapolis, Minnesota released their debut LP, Lucky, but a few seconds into their sophomore album, Trouble, and the warm feelings of that time are instantly rekindled. It’s that vintage-infused sound at the intersection of country, blues, and soul, with a touch of garage rock and 60s girl groups, that works so well, but the twangy guitar melodies and amazing vocals are what make it really stand out.

The five musicians—Eliot Gordon, Fletcher Barnhill, Jackson Dungan, Margo Babb, and Sheela Iris—effortlessly hold our attention for thirteen songs, with Fast most original in reflecting the theme on which the record is loosely based. Smiles and chills abound.

Trouble is out now digitally and on vinyl LP through Piñata Records.
