New Music Showdown: Jacob Deal Band Vs The Remains

It is time yet again for the New Music Showdown and this week we've got a new band going head to head with one of the Concho Valley regulars.  The Jacob Deal Band takes on The Remains this week, take a listen and cast your vote.

Newcomer Jacob Deal and I have been in contact for a couple week talking about his new single and it's finally time to let the masses hear it.  Untamable Heart is a cool tune talking about that you lady that is to hard to catch and or hold on to.  It's rockin' with a hint of banjo and a sound that I can't quite put my thumb on.  Great vocals, writing and musicianship is sure to take the Jacob Deal Band places, hopefully San Angelo soon.  Great tune, take a listen and let me know what you think.

In the other corner we have a Concho Valley regular, The Remains.  If you were out and about last Friday you probably saw The Remains playing at Boondocks (formerly Stillwater Bar & Grill) with the Joey Green Band.  The Remains have a cool sound and had a great turnout at Boondocks Friday night.  Their sound is kind of like Mike McClure mixed with a little Bleu Edmondson.  Feet On The Ground is a rockin' song but a little bit slower on the rockin' aspect.  It's put together very well and I know you'll dig it.  Take a listen, enjoy!
