To help usher in Fashion Week, Reckless Sons played John Varvatos' "Thursday Night Live" showcase last week. It has been about two years since I last saw the Reckless Sons play and the band has gotten a couple of new members and their live show has gotten tighter. A few years back, I compared the band to the Dream Syndicate but the band's new material has them moving in a British blues-rocks direction, taking influences from early Rolling Stones and The Faces. The band's brand of high-energy rock-n-roll was amplified by a packed house and free beer and Moonshine whiskey.



This show also served as a de facto release party for the Reckless Sons' new 7-track EP (available as a free download from www.recklesssons.com) and the band touched on all seven songs during their eight song set.



In the spirit of keeping the whiskey flowing, Reckless Sons are playing a St. Patrick's Day show at Bowery Electric.
