​Sack of Lions(from the album White Lightning available on Sower Records)
The title track for White Lightning is a brew of many sonic colors, the tune following a fiddle into a tag team of guitar strings and the persistent pound of a drum beat, the musical bed a constant for the fickle love story. Rock’n’Roll propels “Run, Tell Your Mama”, the rhythm section nearly frothing as it hammers down a foundation while Sack of Lions wrangle a highway song into shape for “Street Jammer”, proudly wear Country on opening cut “Callin’ for Rain”, and hold lighters high for the anthemic strums of “Made of Stone”. 
Sack of Lions are a Midwest band, tapping into the multiple musical styles that crisscross the U.S., blending and coaxing Country, Rock’n’Roll, Americana, and Roots music into a brand on White Lightning. Busting out of the gate at a full gallop, “Die” faces mortality on a runaway honky tonk beat while a molasses thick groove plays heartbreak at a slow speed for “See You Around” as Sack of Lions surround the goodbye in “Gone” with front porch Folk and conjure up dust devil’s with the Southwest winds blowing through “Boom”.
