Having drawn comparisons to Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, Big Star, and even The Rolling Stones since their inception, The Roomsounds have made a name for themselves trafficking in timeless, no-frills rock ‘n’ roll. The band now enters its second decade with a fresh slate and a batch of their most genre-melding songs to-date; Good Company throbs and sizzles from the inside-out, as frontman Ryan Michael emerges as more confident and unapologetic than ever before.
With the help of producer/engineer John Pedigo at Audio Dallas, the veteran group ─ rounded out with musicians Nick Snyder (guitars), Red Coker (bass guitar), and Dan Malone (drums, percussion) ─ slithers from Bill Withers silkiness (“Big Shot”) to the smart pop sensibilities of the British Invasion (“In Over My Head”) and a Brian Wilson-stamped moodiness (“Blame it on the Liars”) before smacking right into rootsier affair (“Win Lose or Draw”). “I'm not worried about reinventing the wheel. We're making songs that we want to hear,” says Michael.

“Good Company is a continuation of the roots-centric and pop-smart rock the band has come to be known for.” - DittyTV
“Dallas rockers The Roomsounds, who are set to release their latest LP Good Company on October 15 know a thing or two about big hummable hooks and a classic rock fervor that rekindles Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers along with Cheap Trick. Mix in thick bleeding guitars and fat bottom beats, and this rock and roll swagger sure is missing in most of today’s music recipe. No pretentious twangs or glossy synthesizers and it’s 1978 all over again when listening to The Roomsounds.” - Glide Magazine
“Good Company is sentimental, thought-provoking, and frequently a lot of damn fun.” - Big Takeover Magazine
“Texas rockers, The Roomsounds, pay a visit with their third album, Good Company. Drawing on diverse influences ranging from the country rock of Poco, to the proto-punk of Gram Parsons; The Roomsounds create hook-laden songs that play like classic 70s rock as interpreted by your favorite twenty first century bands.” - TJ Music
