Former Roxy Blue singer Todd Poole has a new band called 714 and I dig it! It's not totally Glam, but the songs are definitely throw back. The band is based in Memphis. In addition to Poole, 714 features Matt Dees (Bass), Chris Turnbow (Guitars) and Jimmy Fulp (Drums).


You can get the band's self-titled debut album now.

I was actually given this CD about 5 months ago at Rocklahoma. I only spun it about 4 or 5 times but it just never grew on me. The songs are just a bit bland for my liking.

Phew. Totally paint by numbers Modern Rock. Looks like the dude's been doing his homework when it comes to sounding like the bands du jour.

As for Roxy Blue, get their album, "Want Some?". It frickin' ROCKS B*LLS! Just check out "Rob The Cradle", one of their songs from that album. They've got a great cover of The Who's "Squeezebox" on it too!

This is pretty bland. But yes, the Roxy Blue cd is AWESOME!

Roxy Blue just released 3 cds of unreleased music from 1991/1992. (http://fnarecords.net/index.php/want-some-more-211.html) One of the cds, "Want Some More" is basically what could have turned into the 2nd Roxy Blue cd. On this cd is a song that 714 still performs, "Set Me Free" which should prove that Todd, the singer & band leader, isn't copying anyone, but in fact has had this same sound for over 20 years. http://youtu.be/678GhjhjajM http://www.facebook.com/pages/714/116695181724404
