They're really rocking in Austin, with a vibrancy and enthusiasm at the Buddy Holly level. Meet Jenny Wolfe and The Pack. The Pack plays to the beat of a different drum, featuring a jangly guitar sound behind a powerful voice with a faint hint of Texas accent, which only makes sense. Jenny and the band hail from deep in the heart of Texas and deep in the heartbeat of rock and roll. No member of the Pack is a day past sweet little sixteen, and Jenny's just thirteen, not that you can tell when she opens her mouth to sing. Here is a voice that packs a punch, with Sheryl Crow attitude, Linda Ronstadt energy, and a rock and roll heart, all of which led producer, mentor, and rock steady drummer, Freddie Krc to some perfectly-suited material for the band. Freddie's old pal, Bill Lloyd (Nashville producer, songwriter, and half of eighties pop-country duo, Foster and Lloyd) was happy to contribute his own power pop jewel as the album's opening track, "You Look Good Walking Away." Michael Nesmith's "Different Drum" had originally been recorded by the Stone Poneys, featuring a young Ronstadt (not too far past her teens herself at the time). Wolfe breathes new life into that song, just as she does The Lovin' Spoonful's "Do You Believe in Magic," The Yardbirds "For Your Love", and the sweet pop hit from The Turtles, "You Baby." Texas legend Roky Erickson's "Starry Eyes" fits right in, the psychedelic innovator's typically melodic but unusually tender love song.
