Robert Jon & The Wreck Issue A Challenge: Come At Me

The southern roots-rockers bring it in their hard-charging new single & video.

Southern roots rockers Robert Jon & The Wreck have got game in their video for their new single Come At Me — showcasing today on Tinnitist.

The hard-charging, rock ’n’ roll-infused final single from their new EP One Of A Kind — out March 10 via Joe Bonamassa’s Journeyman RecordsCome At Me was produced by Grammy winner Don Was (Bonnie Raitt, The Rolling Stones, John Mayer) and recorded at Hensen Studios in Los Angeles (the studio that gave us Tapestry by Carole KingBlue by Joni Mitchell and many others).

Come At Me was one of the first new songs we wrote for our summer recording sessions,” says frontman Robert Jon Burrison. “The song happened so fast, it almost wrote itself. It’s another fun upbeat song that makes you wanna scream along with the chorus after hearing it just once. Working with Don was great because he has a zen-like quality about him that makes you feel very comfortable. He knows what it takes to make a band feel relaxed to get the best performances from each player.”

Come At Me follows the release of the album’s captivating, Americana-infused single Who Can You Love and The Pain No More, an outstanding riff-driven roots-rock track produced by the eight-time Grammy winner Dave Cobb (Chris Stapleton, Brandi Carlile). In contrast, Come At Me showcases another side of the band’s dynamic sound, as they gear up to release a series of diverse singles over the next year, beyond the release of the One Of A Kind EP. Prolific songwriters with a wealth of new material who refuse to be constrained by traditional release strategies, the band’s new partnership with Journeyman Records affords them the opportunity to work with the world’s top producers and release a steady stream of high-quality singles on an ongoing basis, cutting through the industry chaos and ensuring new music is accessible to fans as intended.

Reigning from Southern California, Robert Jon & The Wreck take the Southern rock sound from the east coast and make it their own. Since their inception in 2011, these four native Californians; Burrison (lead vocals, guitar), Andrew Espantman (drums, background vocals), Henry James Schneekluth (lead guitar, background vocals) and Warren Murrel (bass) have been electrifying audiences with their soaring guitar leads, rich vocal harmonies, and memorable tunes. Simply put, it is difficult to ignore when these talented musicians take the stage.

They’ve played sold-out shows and proudly shared bills with the likes of Joe Bonamassa, Peter Frampton, Buddy Guy and Rival Sons. 2020’s Last Light On The Highway garnered acclaim for the band and 2021’s Shine A Light On Me Brother continued their upward trajectory. They released two singles in early 2022, Waiting For Your Man and She’s A Fighter. On Sept. 30, The Wreck released their latest Album Wreckage Vol. 2, which paved the way for even more new and exciting music from the band.
