Velveteen's motto is 'rock at its roots', served hot and fresh in a risky format. The music is a unique blend of rock with definite blues overtones with danceable funk rythms and jazzy beats smoothed and sautee'd by drooling bass lines. All of this projects a barrage of throaty melodies stemming from the fast lane of the city and intertwined with small town despair. |
