Like a Lion

"Take a listen to Tom McBride and the Whig Party and you'll find a band that builds on a mix of country and rock with modern sensibilities. Their songs are rooted in solid instrumentation, steady rhythms and easy going choruses. This self-proclaimed five-piece rock, Americana/alt-soul band from Washington, DC, is keeping busy this summer with the release of their new album Like A Lion..." - District of Sound

"Like a Lion, the first full-length album from area singer-songwriter Tom McBride, goes in multiple directions within the context of folk rock. Opening track 'Flying Pete' has a hard edge that ultimately soars in the middle; 'Cheap Thrill,' definitely owes something to the Beatles, if the Fab Four were a funk band; and 'Cutting Up LA' lies somewhere between Ska and the Velvet Underground. Listenable, danceable and fascinating. A winner." - OnTap Magazine
