What Pop Music Should Sound Like...

Last night while at Harper's Ferry on Commonwealth Ave in Allston I was impatiently waiting for Wale to take the stage. Since I had arrived all together too early my patience was wearing on me, and the opening acts were not only terrible they were damn near unbearable. One band whose name for the life of me I can't remember, although I was sober, came on stage and announced they were from the Prospect Hill section of Lawrence (blank stare). The one who screamed this confession was dressed in a bathrobe (blank stare), the music that proceeded this announcement was nothing more than semi-organized noise.

Then these kids came on stage, I had never heard of them until last night and they are from Boston and go by the name of the "Bad Rabbits". I knew they were serious when the DJ booth was taken away and a live band began to set themselves up. They came on stage with an outstanding amount of energy and genuinely seemed to be having fun performing. The live band sounded pretty good and the lead singer was hitting impressive notes. Below watch video of clips of them performing, it was so nice to finally have some refreshing, original, and talented musicians from Boston take the stage. These kids are just one AnR away from making a huge break, really. I downloaded their album today and I cannot tell you how impressed I am with this band. They are worth a listen and are what pop music should sound like.

Peace & Progress
