McClain
McClain
Nashville, Tennessee has a new hero in the band McClain. Perhaps one of the sharpest sounding bands out there the group has a great grip on the Folk/Americana music genre. The members of the band are a married duo who recently moved to Nashville, TN in pursuant of their dreams. Travis and Lindsay McClain are the perfect match to each other as their musical talents nicely blends together.
Some of the most compelling and thoughtful lyrics around McClain is proving that they have staying power. Most recently added to the singers/songwriters’ list of accomplishments included the release of their new EP entitled "The Ivy".
One of the most enjoyable aspects about this EP is the tenderness, passion, and originality that come across through the tracks. When Travis and Lindsay sing, it is harmonic in nature. What we get is something magical, captivating, and unforgettable. This EP will speak to all music lovers alike. It is a solid performer from a fantastic talented duo.
I am pleased to give this EP a sweet A+
