Jon-Rae & the River - Knows What You Need

Jon-Rae & the River - Knows What You NeedAre you ready to be saved? Jon-Rae Fletcher and his country-soul-gospel group have their sights set on your miserable, god-forsaken soul. Singing spirited songs about sex, booze, apparitions and hitting the road, the Toronto band takes a distinctly non-Christian approach to their missionary work. With honky-tonk pianos, Stax-style horns and Fletcher’s ecstatic vocals with his girlfriend, Anne Rust D’eye, it’s like an old-fashioned revival from the boisterous opening “Roll” to the hymn closing “Fire.” Amen.
