Reviews for Love Someone

"Evocative of singer-songwriter legends such as Bob Dylan or Bruce Springsteen, “Love Someone” is a beautifully spacious track which utilises soft electric guitar and a warm trumpet solo to deliver one simple message: all humans deserve to live peacefully, whoever they are, and wherever they’re from," Rolling Stone

"Webb’s lyrical message is simple: all humans deserve to live peacefully, wherever that may be, but his musical arrangements are filled with depth and emotion, layering his refrains across a bed of soft electric guitar, gentle drums, and an exquisite trumpet solo," Beat Magazine

"Rich Webb's 'Love Someone' calls for humanity and respect," Music Feeds

Reviews for Le Rayon Vert

"An electric blend of Americana and garage rock, with a sprinkle of country rock and some scorching riffs," -PureGrainAudio.

“A steamship trip on the Mississippi, at times a road movie, at times an ode to love, and at times no nonsense rock and roll” -Musicheadquarter.

"A masterpiece that captivates from the first to last note - it’s a gripping mix of desert-hot Americana, atmospheric indie, elegantly rumbling garage rock" - Country Music International

“Like a Tarantino soundtrack” -Beat Magazine.

“The fast paced, gun slinger sound makes ‘Let it Rain’ the perfect outlaw track” -Music News Today

“A drive through Route 66 in a 1976 Eldorado Cadillac whilst the sun sets” -Rock on the Radar

“Le Rayon Vert is a masterpiece that captivates from the first to the last note – it’s a gripping mix of desert-hot Americana, atmospheric indie, and elegantly rumbling garage rock” -Country Music News International

“Webb’s voice takes the most emotional role – alone his earthy, scratchy timbre would be enough to fill a dozen albums” -Soultrain

“Like John Mellencamp on drugs” -Darkstars

“Le Rayon Vert is an album for those who are cosmopolitan, like to have variety and want to chill every now and then” -Crossfire Metal

“At a later hour, after an eventful party evening, it’s just perfect listening” -Metalogy

Expect primal country-tinged dirty rock, devil’s rib bone rhythms and scorching leads strung like delicious party lights around Webb’s offbeat story-telling and gritty vocals.

The new album is the band’s fifth and was recorded in Black Box studio in the Loire Valley late last year with David Odlum, and in Germany with Arno Jordan at Castle Rohrsdorf and Wolfgang Manns at Toolhouse. It was produced by multiple BAFTA winner Howard Bargroff and mastered by Pete Lyman of Infrasonic Mastering Nashville.

Acclaim for previous releases include 4* from Rolling Stone for The Girl Who Laughed Too Much, while follow-up ‘Overboard’ topped that.

They’ve had songs run hard on radio – ‘Don’t Feel So Sad, ‘Gone Gone Gone’ – and kicked out many 100s of cracking shows across three continents, from the large (Amsterdam’s Melkweg, Saarbrucken Castle), to the small and superbly elegant (Café Vinyl and London's What's Cookin'), to the venues less travelled (KAMA, Kampot and Turning Point at the top of a mountain somewhere in Germany).

You may have seen them in Germany, France, Switzerland, Austria, the UK, Australia, the Netherlands and Cambodia, and I doubt you would forget it if you had.

Just make sure you catch them this time too.

"Howlingly good, dark-hued Aussie popmeister," London Evening Standard

“Like a Tarantino soundtrack,” Beat, Melbourne

“A steamship trip on the Mississippi, at times a road movie, at times an ode to love, and at times no nonsense rock and roll,” Musicheadquarter, Germany

• Not only has it got everything you need if you want to plunge overboard but it’s also like some sort of art statement from which it’s difficult to leave. Bremer Stadtillustrierte, Germany
