Offering up six songs worth of neatly chugging and harmonic straight-up rock’n’roll, this album goes down smooth and easy thanks to its engaging vocals, tight’n’tuneful arrangements, and concise songwriting.

Hudson Rail Company opens with City By The Ocean, a straight up classic rock song with a groovin' bass line. You'll find yourself dancing and singing along to this highly commercial offering. Take Their Toll sounds a bit like a stripped down Live, with LV Leigh Wilson sounding a lot like Ed Kowalczyk Mystery Madonna finds Hudson Rail Company in a similar mold, although the guitar work here reminds me a bit of Lowest Of The Low (but still with Ed Kowalczyk on vocals). Wisdom sounds very radio ready, with some great guitar work by Arun Viswanathan. Superstar Tonight brings a bit of the rock star glam feel to a modern rock arrangement in a song that seems like it should be a concert favorite. Hudson Rail Company saves the best for last on Friend Or Lover.
Hudson Rail Company brings a classic rock feel into the modern era with songs built on steady, classic rhythms and lots of guitar. Hudson Rail Company is a solid Rock N Roll EP, definitely worth a listen.

An appealing, natural, and organic tone…that is easily digestible. Overall, it’s a good listen.

Bio
HRC has built a successful fan base in the Tri State area by writing and performing classic rock reminiscent of the pioneering blues rockers Zeppelin, The Who, the Stones, and Allmans combined with the modernity of G'nR, the Chili Peppers, Pearl Jam, and the Black Crowes.
Leigh Wilson and Arun Viswanathan found a natural collaboration and a collective desire to bring classic hard rock back to our modern alternative/indie scene. Adding the combination of Jim Russo on drums and Nick Vignapiano on bass set the solid foundation that draws on HRC's biggest influences.
