The Test Drive: Joe Symes and the Loving Kind – A Place To Call Our Own

Joe Symes and the Loving Kind have released their new EP titled ‘A Place To Call Our Own’. Joe and the boys have always been consummate songwriters to my ears but, with this latest and all too long awaited outing, we get more of an experienced and weathered band. What I mean by this is that the songs are almost ahead of the crowd, in a good way. We get that signature songwriting and construction, but with more experience, reflection, and just plain more of everything. Is this what happens when a monster of a band takes too long of a break? Guess we’ll have to find out next time. Cool thing is, there will be a next time.
