Ever wonder what a southern rock band with a prog bent that decided to try it’s hand at New Wave would sound like if they got Geddy Lee from Rush to produce them?
Yeah, me too. 
Thankfully we all get our wish with Wireless.
Until about 3 songs in when it turns into…Southern Boogie rock? 
Why the fuck not, I say as it turns into some jazz southern fusion thing. 
And then it just kept plowing ahead as I wondered how they ever came to be, what they were like live and where they went.
