   About BLACK OWLS
Black Owls - Lightning made us who we are... CD
Insert disc, grab a MILLER HIGH LIFE and press play. THE BLACK OWLS are now going to take you on a journey through the history of Rock n' Roll and what has become what I call "The Heartlands influence on modern Rock" and how it has shaped the way of music, and how it's still enjoyed today. Ohio natives THE BLACK OWLS have put together some of the best well crafted songs influenced by some of this country (and others) best known musicians that still make their mark today. This disc is loaded with hints of The Rolling Stones, The WHO, The Ramones and Georgia Satellites—to say the least—with a vibe of your favorite local BAR band playing their hearts out till all hours of the night. Plenty of danceable tracks, a few absolute anthems and creative music abilities that make this band stand apart from the past (and make the future seem more pleasant) while staying true to this worlds music roots & making it fun again. Sometimes you have to go back a step and appreciate what was before ever understanding what will be. History has made it's mark, and it is time for the present to do the same — THE BLACK OWLS have a firm foothold in creating a new history for Rock n' Roll. This CD is a complete celebration of music at it's finest and should not be ignored. Dave Fishwick the Neus Subject 11/07/2008

Critic's Pick: Black Owls (Granville, Ohio) “Listening to the Black Owls is like taking the back roads through the countryside — for every moment of breathtaking beauty, there are perplexing visions, depressing vignettes and a ramshackle trailer threatening to come loose from the hitch on the pickup in front of you. Complementing their revival-tent Rock & Roll are intelligent lyrics full of rust belt imagery and quirky humor.” Dig It: The Rolling Stones, The Talking Heads meet The Kentucky Headhunters. (CITYBEAT MAGAZINE, Cincinnati, Ohio 9/17/08)
