Willy Barber's bass playing just makes this song work. Every time we come out of the chorus back to the one-chord I just want to say to every bass player: Listen to this! That's how you do it!

lyrics
You Make A Bad Thing Worse
You know sometimes I wonder
What kind of fool am I
To listen to a word you say
When all you do is lie
Last time we were together
You got into a jam
You left me there in Paris
Now I see you here in Amsterdam
How low must we go
Why not remove this curse
You make a bad thing worse
You make it evil and a sin
You make a bad thing worse
I don’t know where to begin
You took my car out drinking
You left the keys inside
And sure enough some foolish kids
They took it for a ride
But that ride don’t compare
The one I’m on with you
Why am I surprised
At anything you do
Every time I come home early
I find you with another man
You blow smoke right in my face
Try to get me raise my hand
Now you’re here like nothin’s happened
You sure do got your nerve
You say you’ll take me back
But it’s more than I deserve

The Voodoo Blues. A throbbing, swampy groove from The Snakeys. Can't wait to see these folk live. A sound reminiscent of many of the late Sixties, early Seventies rock legends, given a massive injection of mojo and attitude.
It's all quality. Great songs and great performances. The band is tight. Great swing on the drums and bass. The real deal for sure. Great singer and raunchy guitarwork. Richard Crowfoot

Like their last EP this is a great modern blues rock record with a nod to the great British blues boom of the late 70's like Taste and Groundhogs , Chris has a great early Johnny Winter snarl to his voice and the rhythm section is solid . great guitar psychout on the track Ride on . Cant wait to catch them live if they get to Sydney William Stevenson
With virtuosic guitar-playing and evocative singing, Carl “Buffalo” Nichols returns Black stories to folk and blues. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 9, 2021
