hell-raising of Sweet.” – Rolling Stone
Los Angeles 3-piece Sweet Justice play modern blues rock in the vein of Gary Clarke Jr, Rival Sons, and the Black Crowes. The 8-song Redline EP is band’s first in over a decade and serves as the long overdue follow-up to 2004’s critically acclaimed self-titled debut, which received rave reviews.
Featuring founding members Frank Meyer (Vocals, Guitar) and Bruce Duff (Vocals, Bass, Guitar) of indie punk vets The Streetwalkin’ Cheetahs, the 2021 lineup of Sweet Justice now includes drummer Mike Sessa, also Cheetahs alumni. The Redline EP was produced and written by Duff and Meyer and finds the trio tackling White Stripes-style stomp-clap (“Tell the Preacher”), swampy pop (“Summer Daze”), Texas blues (“Medicine Show”), glam-boogie (“I Get More”), Robert Johnson-by-way-of-AC/DC strut (“Redline”), and more across this hot ‘n’ juicy swagger platter.
Meyer is also the frontman for Iggy & The Stooges guitarist James Williamson, member of Long Beach supergroup Blind House, and bandmate of Eddie Spaghetti (Supersuckers). Duff is an established music producer and manager, cut his teeth in 45 Grave, ADZ, and Jeff Dahl, and plays in Jesters of Destiny, The Magnificent, and Scared Cowboys. Meanwhile, Sessa has toured with everyone from Cracker, Rosie Flores, The Joneses and Wayne Kramer.
