Daniel Romano’s Outfit; a breath of fresh air into the rock scene

June 22, 2023

Tuesday night The Independent for The Dirty Nil and Daniel Romano’s Outfit show. The co-headlining tour brought the bands to San Francisco and we enjoyed openers Wander. We then were treated to a non-stop rockin set by Daniel Romano’s Outfit. This was an absolutely stellar set that was truly a much needed breath of fresh air into the rock scene. It was spellbinding in every sense and was a full on rock presentation. Their fun, energetic spirited set had the audience in awe, just as were. The music brought everything to the stage; powerful vocals, thunderous guitar, boundless energy and a vibe that raced across the venue, captivating each and every audience member. If you have watched the Amazon series Daisy Jones & The Six, there is something magical in their performances and Daniel Romano’s Outfit had that allure, if not even more.

Today is a big day and no, I am not talking about my birthday! Tonight is the 61st Recording Academy Grammy Awards. Today during the pre-telecast, our favorite band has taken a big win. Greta Van Fleet has won Best Rock Album for From the Fires. This is a huge win for them and we congratulate them on all their hard work. They were up against some great talent, Alice in Chains, Rainier Fog; Fall Out Boy, M A N I A; Ghost, Prequelle; and Weezer, Pacific Daydream. From the Fires was the double EP from Greta and was released November 10, 2017. That album is such a special and personal one for all of us at Music Junkie Press.

Check out our list of the Top Live Performances of 2018 for Music Junkie Press! Topping our list is none other than Greta Van Fleet, who are like a pair of shock paddles resuscitating the life of Rock n Roll. We were fortunate to catch four of their California shows in 2018. Within the last decade, we have seen many bands deliver some good blips on the heartline of the rock and roll, but none as huge as the spike that Greta Van Fleet is making. They are bringing a full on resuscitation to ROCK ‘N ROLL so get ready, hang on and enjoy the ride. The first show we saw this year was at the John Anson Ford Amphitheater: “The crowd grew to capacity as Greta Van Fleet were to take the stage.

June 1, 2017

All Time Low have released a new single from their anticipated new LP LAST YOUNG RENEGADE. The track is called Good Times and you can take a listen here and watch their new lyric video: Frontman Alex Gaskarth commented on “Good Times” stating, “Good Times is the first song we wrote for the album, and the cornerstone of the entire record. Writing this song set us on a path that would lead to this world of night drives, rain slicked streets, and the neon hum of a small town fit for escaping. Without ‘Good Times’, the LAST YOUNG RENEGADE wouldn’t exist. I’m thankful to have found this song in the creative ether, and doubly so for the reflections in the lyrics that inspired this big adventure. I won’t forget.” You can pick up the new album LAST YOUNG RENEGADE this Friday, June 2nd. 1. Last Young Renegade 2. Drugs & Candy 3. Dirty Laundry 4. Good Times 5. Nice2KnoU 6. Life Of The Party 7.
