  • We Say...

    Rick Henrickson is unapologetic about the influences that pervade his work. Frank Black, Jason Falkner, the Beatles: you can hear ghosts of their classics all over Reaching for a Gun, Henrickson's debut album. That's not a complaint, though. Henrickson's truly talented in his ability to spin these internalized ideas into melodic gold. Quick, sharp and insanely catchy, these tunes ("Cool Dry Place," "Surprise, Surprise" and "Two Hats" especially) are the sort of revivalism that'll have you reaching back to the classics soon after Reaching for a Gun concludes. If you don't find yourself playing it again, that is.
