Pawnshop Roses - Second Hand Love
[audio:Pawnshop_Roses-Second_Hand_Love.mp3]
Pawnshop Roses have become a well oiled live act, performing hundreds of shows a year. And with a sound that could have come from a jam session between Hank Williams, the Rolling stones and the Replacements, the band has built a fan base that craves it’s electric all-out rock shows as much as they appreciate the band’s stripped down unplugged sets that showcase the organic songwriting at the heart of their music.
You have to experience Bob Schneider live to understand why he may be America’s greatest undiscovered musical talent. Since the 2001 release of his acclaimed album, Lonelyland, and the “next big thing” hype that went along with it, two things have happened; 1) He has toured relentlessly playing hundreds of dates per year building an audience of devout fans, of which one blogger recently referred to as “The BS’ers,” and; 2) He has not become the next big thing. And to anyone that has witnessed the on-stage magnetism of Bob Schneider that is an inexplicable injustice, which may be as much the fault of the broken nature of the music business as it is anything else.
Check out this video of Bob Schneider performing “Flavors Too Strong” in Texas.
