Giving Lenny Kravitz a run for his money

Hey guys,

Just released this new track with my band the Astro Droids (we posted a Beatles Medley waaay back... cause love the Beatles... I mean who doesn't!), and everyone keeps telling me, "Man! You're like the new Lenny Kravitz!". Now, I personally don't think that I am, but tooooo many people keep telling me that lol So for your deliberation (and perhaps even my detriment haha), check out the single and lemme know what you think!

And hey, if you like the band, check out our stuff at thastrodroids.bandcamp.com

... oh and here's the Beatles medley in case you're interested in that:

Very cool! I dig the vibe you're getting. If I were to make one suggestion, it would be to lose the stutter/sampling effect on the vocals. It kills the flow and feel, at least for me. Nice job! Keep it up.

Ah, well if it ain't Mr. St. Kitts... you guys played that song BIG last night! Boiselle stepped up to the plate most grandly. And stutter away, my man. Stutter away.

Lenny Kravitz? I can't really say I see it...


Yes, I play bass, and no I ain't Roorda (I only wish)

I kinda see the resemblance to Lenny in the vocals. I dig your band bro. I have been watching all your videos. My wife digs it a lot. Love the friggin' helmets too.
