Ugly, Broke, & Sober


Susie Kopecky

For some reason, I thought this was going to be a country album, which I would have been happy with also, but it definitely is not.

Telling on Trixie is a high-energy, yet incredible easy-to-listen-to band. Their second, and newest, album is "Ugly, Broke, & Sober," and is anything but ugly.

There is a wide variety of melodies on this album, with the overarching theme more of a rock/pop and rock/adult contemporary theme. The songs "Shooting in Go," "Crash Me Up" and "A.N.F.O." are the catchiest ditties on the album, with the last track having a real old school rock feel. Most surprisingly, there is also a cover of "Mad About You." It's fun to listen to!

"The Deepest Dive" is probably the slowest and most introspective song, which will be good for those looking for a lovely new ballad. "Late so Tired" is of a similar stripe as well.

Telling on Trixie is a band with some great songs, and deserves to be checked out.
