Self-titled album from Pete Van Dyk & The Second Hand Band

BLUES rock n roll group Pete Van Dyk & The Second Hand Band have put out their self-titled album.

The release by the Burlington, Ontario, band is accompanied by the video for the single Talk Of The Town. The band describe the video as a "surreal journey through a day in the life of lead guitarist Ed featuring dinosaurs, Jean Claude Van Damme and other strange sights".

Pete told RealSoundsOK: "We recorded in the second story of an old industrial building in Hamilton that was being used as a yoga studio. The majority of the tracks were recorded live off the floor with some dubs for vocals and lead guitar. 

"Tracking live enabled us to capture the energy of our live show and utilize the natural reverb and massive sounds of a wide open room. Our style is a funky gumbo of rock and roll drawing influence from punk, blues, funk, rock and roll and so on, we hope you dig what you hear."

The album is available as Name Your Price at Bandcamp and you can watch the video for Talk Of The Town below. For more head to petevandyk.com
