“Shine A Light On Me Brother is a striking ten-track barn burner.”
“It’s like hearing the Blues Brothers and Blackberry Smoke doing Proud Mary, in the desert .”

Says the Wreck’s frontman, Robert Jon Burrison, “Our latest single, Everyday’ is an all-out good-time jam track that was born out of frustration due to lack of freedoms that we had grown used to pre-pandemic and were subsequently denied during lockdown. It’s about the desire to get together with friends, play music, have some beers, and just spend time with each other in person again. This track is one to be listened to on repeat and sung along to!”
