Coming from Port macquarie and touring up the coast to Queensland, Dwaine Cameron & The Stellar Groove (now renamed BARREL HOUSE) stopped in to the Coffs Hotel on Saturday March 22 and put on one hell of a show!
The girls who weren't too busy 'ooh-ing' and 'aaah-ing' at the three young men were up on the floor dancing unable to resist the funky catchy tunes of Dwaine Cameron & The Stellar Groove. - R&R magazine
Wow, I dig this track! It got me from the opening slide guitar. Echoes of Jeff Lang, great lyrics, killer slide guitar.... so so soooo good!

There are times when drums can drown great elements of a track but that is not the case here. Simple drumming supports rather then over-powers the guitaring which by the way, is on form with it's down and dirty sound. The vocals in the track really fit the message as a whole and I really like the voice, it's very fitting. The lyrics are simple, which is not a bad thing by any means - in fact, simplicity can be the best method, just look at The Beatles. The lyrics were simple and great, just like the lyrics on this track.

A rockin' slide blues tune. The only thing dirtier than this guitar sound is an old man in a trench coat. Check it out if you're a fan of acts like Ash Grunwald, The Fumes, Ashley Davies and Ben Harper.

Bio
Barrel House are back at it again!
Early in the bands development they were given an opportunity to play at the Open Arms festival in Coffs harbor as part of a jjj unearthed competition. From there the boys set off around the country on a heavy touring schedule for the next few years they got to share the stage with such bands as, The Beautiful Girls, Ani De Franco, Blue King Brown, Jeff Lang, Sticky Fingers, Ash Grunwald, The Delta Rigs and the list goes on.
They released an EP "Open road" and an Album "Species Vagabond" after such a busy few years the boys had a much-deserved break.
Now Stripped back to a 2 piece the boys have been back on the road and in the studio and are excited to have some new tunes and shows to share. Stay tuned for the release of some new tour dates and music.
