First single release from the forthcoming Wily Bo Walker album 'Moon Over Indigo' has Wily Bo sing a song of debauch, devilry and mayhem and sees Danny Flam and the New York Brass rockin' up a storm, Kareña K singing her sassy backing vocals and Keith Mack doing his thang on geetar!!!
Turn on the radio and DRIVE, DRIVE, DRIVE!!!
Said of this track:
“Drive goes more into soul R&B music but with a very special touch. I have listened to it 6 or 7 times one after another. Not too many songs get that from me. Wily Bo Walker has a really big thing going on…The sound is amazing.” Diego RJ - El Sotano Radio
"Wily Bo Walker's gravelly, bourbon-soaked voice impresses on this debut single from forthcoming album 'Moon Over Indigo'. His vocals are bolstered by a punchy, soulful brass courtesy of the New York Horns and Keith Mack's surf rock guitar riffs, forming a sound which makes for a groundbreaking amalgamation of genres.” Tom Short - The Musician (Musicians Union Magazine)
“Just finished listening to debut single 'DRIVE' … it was awesome. It's such a pleasure to listen to great music that comes from the soul. Can't wait for the album.” - Music News, Scotland
