Consisting of traditional blues elements infused with a silky-smooth pop sensibility, Overnight Success is the long-awaited follow-up to the band’s critically-acclaimed album, Somethin’s Wrong . Don’t be fooled: Despite the obvious crossover appeal of this album, there is some serious grit in the grooves here. Billy D’s seen-it-all world-weary vocals, combined with all-around ace guitar playing are the main attractions, but solid professionalism abounds throughout the eleven tracks, with supernatural rhythm
The long awaited follow-up to Billy D and The Hoodoos’ 2013 debut album Somethin’s Wrong has finally arrived and it is filled with the same catchy songs with their bare-boned, rock-inflected riffs that made that first release so well received. There’s a lot of power behind the trio of guitarist Billy D, drummer Scott Van Dusen and bassist Joe Casimir who know how to bring across a message without overstating their instruments’ voices and that is clearly evident on the new album, Overnight Success .

Somethin's Wrong is a collection of tunes that span the spectrum of blues. Mix one part Rock'n Blues, add some Chicago South Side swagger and sprinkle some tasty Cray-esque licks, and you've got some mighty fine tunes. The songs work together to create an "outside the box Blues Experience". Billy D's thoughtful lyrics combined with a smoking rhythm section make for a great listen
