Breathing Blue’s new self-titled EP is a carefully crafted and fast paced introduction to 5 young New Jersey rockers. The band crafts the intricate guitarwork of Rob Bost and Matt Basilato, the crooning, catchy melodies of Justin Sanford, and the strong rock rhythms of Chris Dechert(Bass) and Tyler Moellmann(Drums) into songs that will stay with you long after your radio is off.
The 6 song EP is accessible on its first listen and catchy from start to finish. “A Star in the West” is a energetic opener that defines a memorable rock debut, and “Chase the World” provides the anthemic rock chorus that will have crowds singing back. The EP closes with “Sparkle”, which highlights Sanford’s upbeat lyrics and the band’s mantra – Nothing should bring you down.
A youthful exuberance permeates through the positive message of their lyrics and their live show, but Breathing Blue is anything but neophytes. The EP uses no auto-tune, no triggered instruments, and no timed loops. The band is also not afraid of bending keys, changing time signatures, or introducing eastern scales to intrigue well-trained ears. The bands’ members have been touring and performing for close to three years, and currently perform as needed with the New Jersey outfit Echo Screen. They have shared the stage with The Ataris, MGMT, Paramore, and many more! They have played their way onto the 2010 Bamboozle line-up by advancing in “The Break” contest.
