Gina Villalobos - Rock 'n' Roll Pony

With the release of Rock 'n' Roll Pony Gina Villalobos launched herself into the higher echelons of country-rock music, with critics scrambling to compare her to the best in the business, most notably Lucinda Williams. Villalobos' scorching vocals and her songwriting sensibility combine with earthy, direct and melodic tunes to create an electrifying experience.

Jangly guitars jostle for position alongside rich steel and the occasional banjo twang. Although the driving rhythms have become her signature, Gina Villalobos can slow things down and provide plaintive vocals in ballads such as We Got It Slow and as such goes a long way towards demonstrating her all-round talent.

Widely hailed as the indie album of the year for 2004, Rock 'n' Roll Pony has unquestionably raised the bar for all aspiring alt.country acts with it's straight-ahead, no-nonsense approach to the finest traditions of country, roots and rock music.
