Sharna-Mae & The Mayhems burst onto the rockabilly scene with Love Drunk, a 12-track debut packed with original songs, infectious melodies and hard-driving vintage rock 'n' roll. Fronted by the remarkable Sharna-Mae, whose distinctive vocals combine rockabilly attitude with a hint of country twang, the band deliver a fresh, youthful take on the music of the rockin' scene. From the hot-rod energy of “Hot Rod Girl” to the title track's romantic swagger, this is a confident introduction to a band with plenty of personality.
“Watching You”, “Suicide Girl” and “Bombshell Blonde” show the band's knack for catchy songs with a rebellious edge, while “High School Party” captures the spirit of teenage rock 'n' roll. The standout “Jackson” is a duet that has drawn praise too. “Little Bit Scared”, “No Good Lover” and “Sugar In The Tank” keep the rockin' momentum going, with “Double Time” bringing the album to a lively close. With a strong set of original material and a charismatic lead singer, the group make a memorable first impression.
Love Drunk is a fine choice for fans of modern rockabilly, female-fronted rock 'n' roll and energetic original songwriting. The band's youthful spirit never comes at the expense of musical conviction, and Sharna-Mae's expressive voice gives the album its own identity. A cracking debut for anyone looking for fresh talent with a genuine feel for classic rockabilly.
