I don’t know about you, but this New York winter is getting might dreary. I’m glad I have the Get Ahead to heat things up. The Portland-based band probably has lots of experience with damp, discouraging weather. That probably explains the bouncy, limitless cheer the quintet brings to their brand of neo-soul.
The Get Ahead should be proud of their debut album. The band is a tight unit. It’s easy to hear how much fun they’re having in the studio — one can only imagine how much better they are live. Overall, Volcano is a party album. You might not find the Answer to your Question here, but you will find some good times.
