Hot Press Review of Tickety-Boo

COLM LYNCH

TICKETY-BOO [TWO BULLETS RECORDS]

****

SOUTH DUBLIN SINGER-

SONGWRITER CUTS

CONVINCING ROOTS

ROCK DASH

This South Dublin singer-songwriter has been tirelessly pounding the boards both at home and abroad, over the last few years. While he’s undoubtedly a powerhouse live performer, capable of summoning up the kind of fiery passion reminiscent of Springsteen, Van Morrison or The Waterboys, Lynch is no mean songwriter either, as this follow-up to his debut, A Whisper In A Riot confirms.

He treats the studio pretty much like he approaches his gigs: that is, he holds almost nothing back and ,with his switch-blade voice and crack band, manages to turn almost every number into an exhilarating tour-de-force. The epic opener, ‘It’s Coming Down’ is the kind of bar-band rock that the likes of The Hold Steady and The Gaslight Anthem have been excelling at recently. And ‘Winners’ combines smouldering, soulfoul atmospherics with yearning lyrics and a nod towards Springsteen’s ‘Jungleland’ (“And the poets, no, they can’t believe their luck”). He changes tack slightly, travelling down a country road, on the foot-stomping ‘If I Was In Your Shoes’, which is not a million miles away from Steve Earle’s cow-punk classic ‘Copperhead Road’, while Dylanesque acoustic folk informs the more gently paced numbers such as ‘Hold Your Fire’ and ‘Kiss My Blues Away’. The spirit of Neil Young (‘Words’) is all over ‘Suits You’ while ‘Quicksand’, a recent single, starts out with just piano and voice but builds into a riotous show-stopping rocker.

Catch him live if you can. This will certainly whet your appetite.
