Jennifer Lyn & The Groove Revival – Retrograde
Retrograde marks the boldest step yet for Jennifer Lyn & The Groove Revival. The band delivers a 10-track studio release that captures the fire, grit, and soul of ‘70s rock and blues—reimagined for today.
With commanding vocals and rhythm guitar from Jennifer Lyn paired with Richard Torrance’s searing leads, the album thrives on dual-guitar harmonies, powerhouse vocals, and blistering interplay. Backed by Jim Anderson (drums), Nolyn Falcon (bass), and Barb Jiskra (keys), the group crafts a sound that’s both vintage in spirit and urgent in execution.
Every song on Retrograde was written by Lyn and Torrance, showcasing their creative partnership and shared vision. Produced with meticulous care by the duo, the album bears Lyn’s sonic fingerprint throughout—capturing both the grit and intimacy that define the band’s sound.
More than just a collection of songs, Retrograde is a statement of artistic evolution and authenticity, bridging roots and modernity while honoring the legends that inspire them: The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Humble Pie, and more.
