The Shelly Phelps Band
Hailing from the Oklahoma City area, The Shelly Phelps Band delivers Fiery Soul Rock fused with Rhythm and Blues and groove-oriented confessions. Reviews of their 2004 release, "Girl On The Wire" praised distinctive, smoky vocals, genuine soulfulness, and gutsy bravado alongside a rock-solid rhythm section, scorching jazz chords, and sophisticated blues-drenched guitar riffs.
Currently recording a new CD, guitarist Rob Vollmar envisions a sound that is "dirty, punchy, soulful, and always aimed at getting the listener to move, even if only on the inside." Phelps adds, "Girl On The Wire" was all about exploring our versatile influences, yet the "soul factor" kept surfacing. So we will focus on the raw, gritty, and sometimes haunting, soulful blues rock that is our truest nature."
The new CD is expected to release in September, 2006.
