Courtney Boyers, the vocalist for Chicago suburban-based TAKE THE REINS, knows how to deliver a tender beatdown with soaring melodies that really pack a punch. Good thing, too, since the musicians who played on the band's album, "Addiction by Subtraction," aren't holding back. The band -- rounded out by Matty Rebel, Dave Burke, Dan Duffy, Erik Hilger (with Dan Precision stepping in on bass for the recording sessions) -- imbued the recent album with a driving energy that firmly complements Boyers' vocals." - Brian Shamie, Daily Herald "Sound Check

"Called an explosive mix of Joan Jett meets The Pretenders", this is the debut album from the mid-west rock band, TAKE THE REINS. Front woman/vocalist Courtney Boyers & crew churn out 12 hard-hitting tracks exploring varying themes on addiction, despair and defiance. Don't miss out on this eclectic mix of songs that doesn't let up, from start to end. Jim Ryan Rolling Stone/Forbes/ Chicago Tribune"
