There’s something about the Zutons’ music that's difficult not to like. Maybe it‘s the fact that
it's shamelessly upbeat, cunningly infectious and happily unshowy. Maybe it how they stand their ground in a field packed with hollow indie preeners in feathered mullets. Maybe it's just the damn fine tunes, but their skunked up ragtime blues is a winner.
