The music of Third Cortez is a smooth symbiosis of assaulting drumwork, ambling guitar and thoughtfully harmonized vocals. Alex Lawry-White’s funky bass and Joe Power’s precision percussion team together fluidly, leading in the noise that’s just enough not to overpower their singer’s words. Front man Jack Buckett’s voice pours through speakers much the same way an expensive cognac might pour into a glass, the aroma and sight most aptly indulged by the experienced and wealthy alcoholic.
