COLD SHOT's CD incorporates an eclectic mix of rhythms that include reggae, ska, zydeco, country and rhythm and blues. These lively songs are written in the pop tradition with catchy lyrics and singable choruses. Song writers Richard Urbino and René Martucci definitely complement each other. Richard's voice has that soulful rock and blues energy. René's alto voice is clear and strong. With songs that fit right into COLD SHOT's history as a dance party band, these catchy originals are being well received by audiences.
