Given
ROCKWIRED's penchant for the heavy stuff in terms of music and in light
of the all that has happened with this country's electorate in the past
couple of days, it feels good when we get a chance to turn down the
volume and easy into something as satisfying at singer songwriter TIM
HOULIHAN's newest album ANOTHER ORION. HOULIHAN's heartfelt Americana
approach is given some extra gravitas thanks to KEVIN BOWE's ace
production but the songs are where its at on this catalog of material
that speaks eloquently on life and love and all of the whimsy that is
attached to it. The opening track and first single I GET LONESOME TOO is
a plucky number filled with instrumental charms here and there. It
could almost be a country radio hit (not that we have a true grasp of
what was popular in country today, but we'd rather hear this than
anything from BLAKE SHELTON). On SOMEBODY TALK TO JESUS, HOULIHAN gets
political and in this post election haze the song probably has more
resonance than ever.
