Michael Stanley and the Resonators

Last year was a solid year for heartland rocker Michael Stanley. The guy self-released his new album, The Ride, which came on the heels of last year’s The Hang, an introspective album he’s referred to as his darkest release yet. The Ride presents a much more positive perspective, something that’s reflected in Stanley’s more regular live appearances (last year, he held down a four-night stand at the Tangier). And he's just recently yet another studio album, The Job. EExpect to hear MSB favs as well as a good sampling of Stanley’s solo material as the guy opens a multi-night stand at the Tangier. (Niesel)
