Complete with ripping slide guitar, rocking drums, a horn section, and slamming piano, Robert Jon & The Wreck are as tight as ever on this winner with outstanding lead vocalist/ guitarist Burrison at the helm. Known for their songwriting chops and stellar musicianship, these multi award-winners have been releasing albums since the band’s inception in 2011. Their last album is Last Light On The Highway, and one of the best albums of the decade.
“’Shine a Light on Me Brother’ is the title track from our new studio album,” says Robert Jon Burrison. “It’s a hard kick of rock and roll mixed with the gospel roots that the band grew up on. ‘Shine a Light on Me Brother’ deals with the obstacles, hurdles, and hardships brought on by 2020, while keeping a positive perspective of moving past the pandemic and challenges that all of us in every culture have faced.”
