04-18 The Head Set @ R n R

04-18 The Headset @ R&R (26)



I've been lucky enough to catch the Head Set playing a bunch of times in the city over the past few years. The band's got an immediate, radio-friendly sound that definitely reaches out and grabs you without being overly poppy. Singer /guitarist Jordan B. has some great pipes - a loungey croon somewhere in the Casablancas-Morrison range and the band writes solid songs filled with catchy hooks. They’re especially strong live & tonight they were in full Rock mode rolling through a tight set filled high-energy tunes & catchy hooks. For the finale, they closed with one of their best songs "Enemies" a tune that sounds destined for the radio and judging by the shrieks & hoots of approval from the crowd the Head Set might just make it there.
