🔥Just got a hold of the new EP from 𝑩𝑳𝑨𝑪𝑲 𝑾𝑯𝑰𝑺𝑲𝑬𝒀 titled 'Rebel', and damned if it's not the highlight of today, and tomorrow.
Five well crafted songs which sounded great when blared loud. I need to give this another spin - but instant highlights are: 'Whiskey Rock n Roll' which we played on the last podcast (is this the strongest song Black Whiskey have written?!) - the stinging guitars on the title track 'Rebel', the heavy riffage and guitar solo on 'Raising Hell' and overall - their authentic Australian sound. One listen in - and I'm giving it the thumbs up. Go chase it down: blackwhiskeyaus.com

Michael James is well known in USA & had a side career as head of A&R for Warner Music Discovery. James has also been featured as a guest writer for Billboard magazine.

We are supporters of this loud Brisbane outfit – they crank out no bullshit rock n roll and are a band with much momentum.
Australian Rock Review
To end the night was Black Whiskey.
A band I have been told is a must see and tonight I saw why.
A great pub rock sound with a punch and the bands slogan ‘Rock n Roll is Dangerous Again!’ suits them to a T. They continued with Too hot to handle and finished off their set with another new song Wild n Free. It left me wanting more and thanks to the amped crowd shouting for an encore we were treated to a special encore of No More. I went in with a high expectation after the many raving reviews of this band and I was wasn’t disappointed. Awesome show, awesome night.
