Heavily influenced by rock royalties like The Beatles, The Byrds and The Doors, The Greenhornes strive to make rock simple again. No flash, just down and dirty classic rock. The latest album Sewed Souls is a compilation of tracks from all of The Greenhornes’ previous albums: Gun For You (1999), The Greenhornes (2001), Dual Mono (2002), East Grand Blues (2005). Anyone who missed the band’s previous works will do well to pick this up.

Merry Christmas to all you dorks and losers out there.
