MP3 The Bitter Roots - Moral Hazard
Soulful vocals and guitar-driven rock. The smooth melodies lay effortlessly over drum lines that make it impossible to resist toe-tapping or head-bobbing along to the catchy rock tunes recorded entirely analog that have that "live-on-tape" sound.

The Bitter Roots are Jeff Stetson and Ben Koostra. Jeff and Ben both live and create music in Seattle.
The Bitter Roots'' music can best be described as soulful rock, guitar oriented and diverse, with vocal harmony and tight rhythms. All the music you hear is recorded to analog tape without aid of digital editing or auto tuning. If it took 54 takes, it took 54 takes, this is real music.
Jeff is the former leader of manSaveman a Seattle rock outfit that put out 4 full length LPs between 2001 and 2006. Jeff also played for the bands Chiseler and Into the March in his home town of Missoula Montana in the early and mid ''90s.
Ben, an enigma by trade, recently relocated to Seattle from abroad, having played and recorded with several bands during that time. Ben is rumored to also be from Missoula and to have once played drums for Ein Heit and Silkworm.
Review:
While some truly great music has been created through digital manipulation, the straightforward guitar, bass, and drum combination is more difficult to find in new bands. Luckily, The Bitter Roots are on the scene to make fans remember why classic rock is classic in the first place. - Joe Marvilli

Live Review:
In a room full of chatter and the clanking of dishes, Jeff Stetson sits alone on a small stage. Unassuming in his jeans and short-sleeved tee, his smoky vocals command the attention of the room from the first line of his opening song ‘Separate Boxes’. - Candace Kludt
