Performer: The Feeling
Producer: Andy Green; The Feeling
Distributor: Universal Distribution

Notes: The Feeling: Dan Gillespie-Sells, Kevin Jeremiah (guitar); Ciaran Jeremiah (keyboards); Richard Jones (bass guitar); Paul Stewart (drums). Some bands dive deep into classic rock radio fetishism and emerge with their own take on the tradition. The Feeling--a London quintet that spent many years as a cover band before composing original material--are capable of writing some incredibly catchy songs yet haven't quite figured out what makes themselves tick. Still, despite the lack of an immediate signature, the Feeling's Island debut, TWELVE STOPS AND HOME, features strong hook-filled songwriting and well performed, modernized '70s FM pop. The band is clearly talented and have released an album that, while not perfect, points to brilliant things to come.

The Feeling were one of a multitude of young U.K. bands to grab a moment or two in the spotlight during the mid 2000s. However, the band had a markedly different approach to rocking, passing on the typical Britpop and post-punk influences in favor of quirky MOR U.K. pop groups such as Supertramp and 10cc. The band's debut album, TWELVE STOPS AND HOME, combined the basic Britpop template with a pronounced '70s influence that encompassed everything from Beach Boys-like harmonies to the soft rock of the Eagles.
