Artist review: Frogs Gone Fishin’


Frogs Gone Fishin’ -- Actual Natural [LP]
by Jeanie Straub

In Actual Natural, the second CD from Frogs Gone Fishin’, the talented foursome -- Trevor Jones (guitar, vocals), Mark Levy (drums, percussion, vocals), Andrew Portwood (guitar, vocals), and "Heady" Steve Rogers (bass, vocals) -- deliver their signature post-Sixties jam-band sound with their usual polish. Don’t take that to mean that they’re staid: They are as energetic and groove-a-licious as ever, offering up a deliciously psychedelic funk that is consistently solid -- this is one sophomore CD that is not “uneven” -- and a rock-’n’-roll quality that lends mass appeal. Especially splendid is the guitar work throughout this 12-song LP that while heavily stylized is still spontaneous and downright fun.

Label: Mountain Size Records
