CADDLE- “Raise ‘Em High”

Category : Music, Reviews

If your rig has mud flaps that say “Back Off” or a decal with Calvin pissin’ on anything then pay attention. Alabama band Caddle has a new cd out called Raise ‘Em High. This is the only package I’ve ever received that I could actually smell- I don’t smoke, but I’d guess un-filtered Marlboros.

This is some kick-ass fun southern rock with a good hint of country.  I got through high school on a steady diet of this stuff.  This set opens up with a wailing harmonica that starts Mississippi Doublewide about “…a double wide I got when my uncle died. Said he was leavin’ money but the mother trucker lied.  I got a one-eyed dog on the porch in a swing, he ain’t no good he’s a lazy thing…”

The title track preaches “Raise your Shirt, Raise your Shot- Show ‘em what you got” which makes me think I know why the band may have elected to replace the T’s in Cattle with “Double D’s”!  Caddle is Phillip Hyde-lead vocals; Justin Johnson-guitar, vocals; Eric Watters-guitar, vocals; Chris Pottratz-bass; Finney James- drums, vocals.  Open yourself a beer, flick your lighter and yell “Freebird”, and give Raise ‘Em High a spin!
