Flat Duo Jets – White Trees – Cassette

White Trees is the debut studio album by the American rockabilly duo Flat Duo Jets, released in 1987. The band, consisting of guitarist and vocalist Dexter Romweber and drummer Chris ‘Crow’ Smith, gained attention for their high-energy performances and raw, stripped-down sound.

On White Trees, Flat Duo Jets deliver a raucous blend of rockabilly, blues, and garage rock, drawing inspiration from early rock ‘n’ roll pioneers such as Gene Vincent and Link Wray. The album captures the duo’s live energy and captures the essence of their dynamic performances.

The album features Romweber’s distinctive guitar playing, characterized by his aggressive and fiery style. His raw vocals and passionate delivery add to the album’s intensity. Smith’s energetic drumming provides a solid backbone to the songs, driving the rhythm and adding to the overall rawness of the sound.

Notable tracks from White Trees include the frenetic opener ‘Blues Wrapped Around My Head,’ the infectious ‘Strut My Stuff,’ and the wild instrumental ‘Frog Went A-Courtin’.’ These songs showcase Flat Duo Jets’ ability to infuse traditional rockabilly and blues with their own punk-influenced energy, creating a unique and captivating sound.

White Trees is an important album in the rockabilly and garage rock revival movements, as it helped establish Flat Duo Jets as one of the standout acts of the genre. The album’s raw, unpolished sound and the duo’s energetic performances make it a thrilling and essential listen for fans of roots rock and rock ‘n’ roll.
