Travis Roberts- Rebel Rose
SKU: 607396658824
If anyone knows how to roll with the punches, it's Travis Roberts. At 24, the Texas songwriter has already battled addiction, buried friends, and been so broke he couldn't put a roof over his head. He even joined an underground fight club just to pay for studio time. Then Roberts comes out swinging on his blistering debut, Rebel Rose. Recorded with Roberts' longtime live band, The Willing Few, the album fuses earnest country storytelling with rowdy rock and roll energy as it blurs the lines between roots, punk, folk, and power pop. The writing is raw and visceral here, built on gritty portraits of working-class underdogs just trying to get by, and the performances are nothing short of explosive, propelled by a relentless rhythm section, searing guitars, and infectious melodic hooks. The result is an exhilarating album that defies easy categorization, an alternately bruising and triumphant reflection on growing up, getting clean, and giving it your all from an artist who's taken more than his fair share of hits. Every fighter knows, it doesn't matter how many times you get knocked down. All that matters is how many times you get back up
