Boston all-stars Reckoners pose the question on their sophomore album Where The Hell Am I?, but the answer quickly reveals itself in their soul-drenched, barroom-worn rock ’n’ roll, where vintage grit and modern punch collide with effortless confidence. Frontman Tim Gearan delivers every line with worn-in sincerity (a voice that cuts straight through and holds you there), while guitarist Johnny Trama lights up the record with sharp, blues-soaked riffs that never overplay their hand. Backed by a rhythm section stacked with veterans, the album moves with effortless swagger, balancing greasy organ grooves, classic-rock crunch, and deep soul warmth. These ten new songs sound lived-in and loose in all the right ways; what’s most impressive is how it only grows stronger as it goes, suggesting a future classic in the making.
Where The Hell Am I?—recorded, mixed, and mastered by Alan Evans—is out now on CD and vinyl LP through Gitcha Records. Featuring Tim Gearan (vocals, guitar), Johnny Trama (guitar), Marc Hickox (bass), Darby Wolf (keys), and Thomas Arey (drums), with Kevin Barry (guitar, lap steel), Lamar Williams Jr. (background vocals), Nigel Hall (keys, background vocals), and Rob Lohr (whammy bar guitar) as special guests.
