Some old friends of mine from the homeland of So. California (Riverside/San Berdoo) called Roxanne have recently put out that sophomore release called "Radio Silence". It features guests like Dug P & George Lynch. There are videos up on youtube, but I'm too lazy to post them here. If you dig melodic hard rock with some great harmonies go check them out.

I'll do it for ya because I checked out this track and I dig it! The only band I can compare this to is City Boy:
I've listened to this track a couple times now and it still reminds me of something from City Boy's catalog - which is a good thing in my book.

Followed by this one which I also dig (looks like you're going to cost me money James B. )
Just ordered the CD from Amazon.

Man I listened to that first song and it didn't do much for me but the second one I really dig. Pretty funny video there on the beginning too.Thanks for sharing James, and Toho!

I like both those tracks a lot but they sure are pretty different style-wise. I'll let you know my thoughts on the whole thing once the CD comes.

Been listening to some of it and it's pretty decent. George seems restrained though, want him to rip.

I think I am a little bit more impressed by what I have heard then by the responses here. It's all good!
I am ordering this cd Monday. I never heard of them 30 years ago, But I like what I hear now...

My copy came today and it's solid hard rock. I think a lot of it sounds like Living Color but stylistically it's sort of all over the place. I really like the singer's voice. Good stuff!

I never heard of them before either but I'm enjoying this CD. The singer has a soulful voice IMO.

That's nice. Rat Pak is doing some solid releases these days and that Roxanne is a good example of quality tunage.

I find it hard to believe this singer hasn't been in demand for some studio work. His voice is simply outstanding.

It's really good isn't it?
I actually like the variety of styles on the album; it keeps it from becoming repetitive. But I do keep coming back to about 60% of it sounding like Living Color, which is a good thing.

Agreed. Nut he probably doesn't want to overpower the tune. Just a guess.

I KNEW that Man In The Moon song sounded familiar. I never would have remembered it was on Let It Scream though.
