Continental Drifters - White Noise & Lightning: The Best Of Continental Drifters (CD)

Details: 2024 compilation. Periodically marketed as a "supergroup," Continental Drifters are simply just a congregation of like-minded musical souls, whose other bands just happened to include the Bangles, The dB's, The Cowsills, and more. From their debut single, "The Mississippi," through 1994's eponymous debut, 1998's Vermillion, 2001's Better Day, and Nineteen Ninety-Three (recorded in that year, but released a decade later), the Drifters' line-up may have been fluid, but their sound always instantly identifiable, comforting, and just plain fantastic. White Noise & Lightning: The Best Of Continental Drifters paints the story of this super group. This compilation follows the band's journey across their entire career. Released in conjunction with Sean Kelly's White Noise & Lightning: The Continental Drifters Story which chronicles the 10-year journey of the Continental Drifters, following the band through years of cross-country moves, lineup changes, industry highs and lows, marriages, divorces, and dozens of songs. Just as Kelly's authorized biography of the band tells the story of a critically acclaimed, commercially overlooked band that became so much more, White Noise & Lightning is not only a great place to start for the uninitiated, but is the perfect soundtrack for this legendary band.
