RUST’s debut EP is so good you’d think it was their 5th or 6th album. Tight, great songs, great
performances!

Recently, I was treated to a new sound belonging to a band that calls themselves, RUST. A sound that
made me sit up and take notice from the first note of "Ellis Magee," an amazing track off their selftitled
EP: RUST (Which hit number one on the Morning Brew with Tom Slick on Jan 22nd). The more I
listened to this 5 piece Atlanta band, the more I wanted to hear… The EP has four tracks that make
you want to hit the play button immediately again. One of the things I was shocked by is the fact that
the songs are currently being offered for FREE to anyone who would like to download and give them a
try. And you should! However, that being said, a small donation would be really cool. While the band
is being generous with their tunes, there's still the bills to pay. So, if you grab a track, drop a little
something in the hat for the guys. They're worth it.

Bio
RUST is an original Americana / Roots Rock band from Atlanta, GA
● Lead singer-songwriter Sean Moran has had a long career in the Atlanta rock scene, and has also spent years playing in New York City and New Orleans. The Irish-Australian vocalist brings his rock frontman experience from Atlanta fave band Rockin’ Bones to the current project.
Since RUST formed in 2014, the band has been playing Americana songs at venues across Atlanta, and around the South. They play their own original songs, and tend to throw in some old favorites for fun. Whether it’s your first RUST show or you’re a longtime fan of the band, they will keep you coming back for more. Like the Southern Crescent railroad that arcs through the South from DC to New Orleans, the members of RUST connect musical influences from Appalachia to the Crescent City – with a lot of rock and roll in between. In the past two years, RUST has headlined shows all over the south and has opened for artists such as Farewell Angelina, Ward Davis and Drivin' N Cryin'.
● Guitarist David Duncan has been playing in a myriad of styles, from California to New York, New Orleans to London, and back in Atlanta collaborating again with Sean Moran in RUST.
● Bassist Chris Poma plays electric and stand-up bass, preferably through a tube amp and without too many notes.
● Drummer Steve Lingo’s impeccable taste is the band’s solid foundation. He is fueled by classic rock such as the Beatles and the Beach Boys, but is equally at home “in the pocket” on a country song.
● Keyboardist Josh Crowe is the newest member of the band but he brings a ton of flavor and a unique feel to each of these original tunes.
All together, these five musicians cook their influences together into a savory musical gumbo. This is Americana music – country, blues, folk, old time and a little bit of rock and roll that will make you move, make you shake your head, make you want to hear another tune. Just ask them, I’m sure they would love to play one more...
