A welcome interruption to the mundane and stress felt around the globe, The Cadillac Three launched surprise album Tabasco & Sweet Tea. A science project of sorts, the trio’s chemistry expands with this sonic swirl influenced by The Allman Brothers, James Brown, Waylon Jennings and Queens of the Stone Age commingled with 80’s funk and hip hop production. TC3 has made a modern-meets-nostalgia record that evokes why Rock grooves eventually took over to become the mainstream and are still a critical ingredient in anything considered badass. There is something boisterous, yet good-natured about Tabasco & Sweet Tea that creates a freewheeling vibe stemming from skilled song craft and memorable instrumentation. Maybe it’s a sign of the times this project is released now as playlists reflect listeners finding comfort in old favorites when times are tough. TC3 finds the common ground interweaving traditions of American popular music and proving that new can still feel classic without being derivative yet simultaneously casting a vision for good times ahead
