Company of Strangers

Polished mid-nineties blues rock featuring Robert Hart's soulful grit. A collection of highway-ready anthems and weary, narrative-driven storytelling.

It's the Bad Company sound you know, but with a 90s highway sheen and a singer who actually sounds like the blues.

A steady, soulful grit that feels like a long drive through the heartland at sunset.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The heavy, narrative-driven opening of the title track with its preacher-man imagery and thick guitar crunch.

The shift into a classic highway-groove on 'Clearwater Highway' that feels tailor-made for high-speed driving.

The intimate, almost domestic tension of 'Loving You Out Loud' before the phone interruption breaks the spell.
