This is a band at the beginning of its life, and there are flaws that will want ironing out. However, the music that these guys are already creating is special enough to suggest that this project might just have legs. Whether the Whiskey Charmers goes the distance or lasts as long as Bongo Hate remains to be seen, but you can bet these folks will have fun in the process.
The Whiskey Charmers play on Friday, March 1, at the Magic Stick Lounge (4120 Woodward Ave., Detroit; 313-833-9700) with Doop & the Inside Outlaws and the Blueflowers.
