It's time to rock and roll and The Hornets deliver big time. Its album 'Heavier Than A Stone' can be found on these pages in 2021. The Modena, Italy band returns with a new album called Another Place To Stay and its very much worthwhile a listen.
The Hornets were formed in 2016 and consists of Stefano Francia, guitar and vocals, Alberto Francia, bass and vocals, Alex Tosi, guitar and Andrea Rovituso, drums and they are more than ready to release their new album. What I particularly like about the music is how straightforward it is. The Hornets do not beat around the bush or try to hide anything. Its music is rocking and the musicians have a lot of fun playing it. It is so obvious from all the songs that this is what they love to do.
Things start in Intro. The band presents the listener its calling card, only to grab you by the hand, arm and then waste. It does not let go until the very last second of Another Place To Stay. Not that everything is as wild as the intro and following song 'Lost Steps'. You will encounter a little The Rolling Stones style country rock that goes down just as well. The slide guitar comes by a few times on the album. The Hornets are not afraid to show its influences from both sides of the pond. It only adds to the charms of Another Place To Stay.

The Hornets' members can not only play very well, they are able to write and arrange their songs in such a way that you will want to hear them again. They also bring a shot of energy to your living room that adds to the fun the band is. Rock guitars, a deep bass and a driving drummer, there are days I do not need a lot more and today is one of those days.
If you are ready for a shot of rock and roll 2024 style, do not look any further. Another Place To Stay is your album for today.
