Rainravens

An acoustic rock and roll quartet formed in Austin, Tx, USA, the Rainravens comprise Andy Truck Dyke (vocals, electric guitar, piano, harmonica), Dave Ducharme-Jones (electric guitar, vocals), Herb Belofsky (drums, vocals) and Dave Evertson (bass, vocals). The group’s musical textures are centred on sensitive four-way harmonies, with lovelorn lyrics compiled by Truck Dyke, who acquired previously documented two single cassettes entitled Spark and Politics & Allergy symptoms. Rainravens happened after evolving in the Andy Truck Dyke Band, after that Drop The Weapon, who also released an unbiased cassette. The Rainraven’s debut record for Demon Information was documented and blended in 1995 on the Woodshed in Austin, with co-production by Gary Hickinbotham. The 11 first songs attemptedto evoke ‘the lyrical invention of Steve Earle and Jackson Browne using the melodicism of commercially effective acts like the Eagles’. Most likely the most effective melody was ‘What HAVE YOU BEEN Carrying out Tonight’, which noted a typical Fri evening in Austin, the protagonist picking right up his girlfriend and driving around without the particular destination.
