Oak Creek
by Tim Wenger
The Oak Creek Band has roots not only in Denver but Arizona and Nashville, TN and they display these roots on their debut album “XI.” A solid compilation of female-and male-fronted rock music with strong elements of Americana and folk, the music is highly danceable and lighthearted.
The guitar work stands out throughout the disc, providing solid lead and rhythm parts and serving as the backbone of the band’s music. “Same Old Story” stood out as a strong single for the record, funky and upbeat with solid leads provided by the vocal and instrumentals. Jenna and Daniel Watters share vocal duties and provide a good back-and-forth rhythm to the album. The songs are very diverse and make for an easy listen- something rare in modern music. The band will headline the Bluebird Theatre November 16.
