Out Of The Box

Description

The Young Sinclairs are a rock & roll band, plain and simple. They have been crafting and producing their own recordings in their hometown of Roanoke, Virginia since 2005 under the direction of songwriter/performer Samuel Lunsford (aka Stimulator Jones). While they have an affinity for tube amps, 12-strings, tambourines, spring reverb, and the analog sounds of decades past, the Young Sinclairs are much more than a mere retro act. The band has successfully explored many styles and textures throughout their existence, and possesses the will to continue to evolve artistically. They are not merely the sum of their influences or their record collections – what they do comes from within them. Their new album, Out of the Box, is an excellent example of this innate desire for creative expansion and innovation. The album's title itself refers directly to this quest for freedom, and the refusal to limit oneself to a specific style, form or label. A mixture of shoegaze, folk-rock, psychedelic, soul, breakbeats, drone, R&B and pop.
