A 91原创 band hit the trigger on a new rock sound last week.

, a band headed up by Walnut Grove frontman Shawn Meehan, released its first full-length album a week ago.

The album, called The Brotherhood 鈥� much like the band itself 鈥� spawned from pandemic-driven jam sessions involving a few friends in a 91原创 garage.

Meehan called it rock 鈥榥鈥� roll therapy.

鈥淲e were like just getting together to jam,鈥� he recounted.

鈥淭here was no real intention to release anything, it was just pure get together and create, and it just lead to something else so much bigger, so much more grandiose. And it鈥檚 pretty cool, pretty overwhelming,鈥� he said.

The songs were never written for public consumption, but for the pleasure of the band members.

鈥淚f I learned anything from this project, it鈥檚 just that we wrote music for ourselves,鈥� and much to his initial surprise, he feels the unique sound and inspirations they channelled into songs during that journey will resonate with the masses.

Trigger Mafia is the quintessential rock revival project with a modern spin, Meehan said in speaking of the band that emerged when his previous country band was all but breaking up at the onset of COVID-19.

He said it was inspired by the raw loud bands of the 1970s and executes that 鈥減ure鈥� rock and roll emotion in a modern production.

鈥淚t鈥檚 really the most honest project I鈥檝e ever been a part of,鈥� said Meehan, a vocalist and guitarist.

鈥淚t鈥檚 surreal,鈥� he said of the entire experience, noting he鈥檚 been playing music much of his life in both the rock and country genres, but never felt he鈥檚 created something more authentic and real than the 14 songs that make up The Brotherhood album.
