About Me |
|
| “Boy in the Bubble play an arresting game of musical hopscotch…Alternating between soft and sighing, loud and sloppy, [singer Josh Seidenfeld] knows exactly where he's going—and he's intent on taking us with him. Call Songs From the City on the Sun indie-rock at a burlesque show. Call it David Bowie on the verge of a meltdown. Call it what you like, but don't miss this Sun set.”– Performing Songwriter
Boy in the Bubble is rough-around-the-edges indie rock that's sometimes ferocious, sometimes tender, and always compelling. This is music for art's sake that also knows how to shake its ass. BITB combines ambitious songwriting and immediately distinctive vocals with an engaging, energetic stage show. Download record that KCRW's Nic Harcourt has been playing on "Morning Becomes Eclectic" right here: V4.4 Or, order the real deal, a CD of "Songs from the City on the Sun" -- Download a ringtone of "Handy"!

Music:Member Since: 8/17/2004Band Website: boyinthebubble.org Band Members: Josh Seidenfeld: Vocals and Guitar; Oliver Future on everything else. OF is: Noah Lit, guitar, backing vox, and production; Jesse Ingals, bass (electric and upright) and absolute sense of musical direction; Jordan Richardson, drums and oh my god it hurts in the most delicious way; Josh Lit, keys and gorgeous sounds; check them out at http://myspace.com/oliverfuture Influences: bowie, tom waits, louis armstrong, beatles, white stripes, the flaming lips, david garza, fiona apple, aphex twin, duke ellington, john stewart and stephen colbert, rufus wainwright, iggy pop, m. ward, franz ferdinand, the clash, wilco, jimi hendrix, muddy waters, radiohead, dylan, stones, pj harvey, mingus, black crowes, oliver future, billy joel, coltrane, guns and roses, old lenny kravitz, the pixies, blur, bjork, hank williams sr., robert johnson, the mountain goats, phillip glass, prince, queen, django reinhardt, sigur ros, stevie wonder, U2, andrew lloyd weber Sounds Like: Boy In The Bubble plays with one foot in the present and another planted solidly in the past. About half of the songs are raw rockers -- imagine a West Side Story knife fight between the children of Bowie, the Beatles, the Kinks, the Stones and T. Rex in one gang and Beck, Rufus Wainright, Radiohead, the White Stripes and PJ Harvey in the other (its sweaty and it might hurt a little, but its mostly just for fun.) ///---/// The rest of the songs are quieter: songs like "Stroll the Sun" are, well, a little like walking in space. That means lyrics that are both ambitious and simple, and songs that feel like the Flaming Lips, M. Ward, Josh Ritter, and sometimes even Joanna Newsom. Record Label: Red Cat Records Type of Label: Indie |
