They’re gonna stand so tall they’ll never fall down.
Having shared stages with legendary acts like Deep Purple, Black Stone Cherry, and The Outlaws, Georgia-based outfit The Georgia Thunderbolts have had a remarkable come up.
It might not have been glamorous, but having busked at gas stations, fumbled through covers, and more, the rise of these Southern rockstars has definitely been well-earned. As this talented crew continues to add to their already impressive music legacy, their only limit is the wide blue sky, and we can’t wait to see what’s in store for them next.
Although they’ve come a long way from driving four hours to Alabama to play for a bartender and three-legged dog, part of what’s made The Georgia Thunderbolts easy to root for is the fact that they’ve managed to stay grounded. Staying true to the hunger and artistic drive that inspired their musical journey in the first place has led to some inspired releases. Fast-forward to the current day, and it’s no surprise that they’re critically acclaimed and have toured internationally.
There’s a lot to love about The Georgia Thunderbolts’s latest release, “Stand Up,” for people who call themselves fans of classic rock. Good rock n’ roll doesn’t need to be overly complicated; it just needs to have the spirit.
And have the spirit “Stand Up” does, with powerful electric guitar riffs and drums forming the basis of an instrumental performance that’s nostalgic yet fresh. Gritty yet catchy and motivating, lyrics like “It’s time to make a change, I’m gonna stand up” help make “Stand Up” feel like the rousing rock n’ roll anthem of resilience it aims and succeeds in being.
With every release, The Georgia Thunderbolts add to their legacy and continue to keep the spirit of classic rock n’ roll alive. Whenever you’re ready, tap in and stream their new release, “Stand Up,” out now on all major streaming platforms.
