Mill City Rockers (MCR) is Awesome!!! Reviewed by Janice, Publisher. MCR Makes History as the first rock band nominated for a grammy that features a father and son on guitars. The Mill City Rockers have been called Americas Favorite Biker Band. As usual, I am always a bit suspicious of hype that says things like best, #1, top, or whatever, unless I check things out and decide for myself. If I’m going to pass along hype like this, it’s got to be for real. After all, my reputation for knowing hit songs is on the line. This band is for real and they really cook!! The Mill City Rockers sent me a package that included several of their CD’s. I’ll tell you what - this band is REDHOT!!! I keep their latest CD constantly playing when I’m driving in the car, which I do from time to time when I need to carry groceries and they won’t all fit in my saddlebags. MCR is a terrific reason to get a CD player installed on a motorcycle. The Mill City Rockers are the only band nominated for a grammy award which has a father and son who are both super talented guitar players. Mill City Rockers have a web site where you can read their story, listen to their songs and decide for yourself! They’ve opened for many of the best biker bands, including Steppenwolf. Mill City Rockers can be booked for 2006 Major Motorcycle Events either through their web site, or by contacting AeroScore Records. | Biker Bands - Who’s Hot?
