The debut from the Alabama Shakes is "Boys & Girls" and it's on Ato, not a typo for Atco. Yup, they're really from Alabama and it's like a raunchy and bluesy bar band, featuring three white dudes and a kick-ass black chick singer, Brittany Howard, none of which should matter but this is Alabama, after all. The album kicks it off with their best one, "Hold On," most of the rest are generic bluesy rockers that are solid, if not entirely mindbending, yet, I'm thinking this would be a very good live band.
