There’s something refreshing about Philadelphia five-piece Free Energy, like a cool sip of Classic Coca-Cola on a hot summer day. Their take on rock ‘n’ roll is something of a youthful mural in which they’re simply taking their favorite colors from different genres and decades and smearing them together to create something light-hearted and energetic. Their debut “Stuck On Nothing” is the sort of sunny album you want as a backdrop to a road trip or a Fourth of July get-together. Sometimes funky but always fun, it’s the kind of optimistic music you’ll want to jam to all summer. Enjoy.
Appeals to fans of: Hockey, My Morning Jacket, Albert Hammond, Jr.
