Who Do You Believe

Chicago Vin Earnshaw is a vocalist, songwriter, sideman, actor, and all-around rock and roll lifer from Boston best known for his track “Blind Infatuation.” His latest effort is The Chicago Vin Coalition, a revved-up psychedelic garage band with blues and country overtones whose new release, ​American Dream. is a life-affirming blast of dirty guitar and organ-based rock and roll. Earnshaw has shared stages with legends including Hubert Sumlin, Lazy Lester, Paul Burlison, Sleepy LaBeef, Sonny Burgess, and CeDell Davis and comes by his grit and grime honestly. His sound is deep and real, the product of a million dive bar gigs and all-night drives.  
 Produced by Arnie Larsen, ​American Dream
​ displays influences like The Animals, The Kinks, The Black Keys, and The Velvet Underground that mix well with Earnshaw’s take on tough-sounding indie rock. He is supported by a crew that includes Don Larsen, Leo Dumas, Chris Stovall Brown, Mark Taber, Klem Klimer,Tom Goodrich, Billy Lacaille, Don Phaneuf, Dawn Fountaine, and Roger Dille on these sessions with strong results. This is music from the analog days that’s more about passion than precision, just like the legends who began this whole game in the first place. Chicago Vin Earnshaw is a direct link to those bare-knuckle times and the perfect antidote for those seeking relief from today’s plastic sounds.
