New Muse-ic Monday!

New Muse-ic Monday is a feature that we run every week to introduce new bands and album releases to our readers. Legendary and well known bands are reviewed in depth, often in advance of the album's release date. We celebrate local and unsigned bands and process many self-released records. Bluebirdreviews offers full album reviews of most submissions, because we know the artist spent a lot of time writing their music. If a musician was inspired to write a collection of songs for an album, then we are always respectful to listen to the entire set of recordings. We do all that we can to include liner note references and the band's biography for our readers knowledge and our archive here. New Muse-ic Monday is often the first place that a band or a new album is introduced. Join us!

Beneath The Sheets: "She's Bad And She Knows It"

Press Release From Boston Based R&B Hip-Hop Artists: Beneath the Sheets.

A new album is on the horizon for 2013!

Members: Evan Gillis, Jeff Ferro, Austin Bryant, Albie Landry, Myke Valley

Sounds Like: Forever The Sickest Kids, Fall Out Boy, Maroon 5

Label: Dirty White Sneaker Productions

Bluebird Review:

The new song, "She's Bad and She Knows It," a preview of their upcoming album due to be released in 2013, is a throw back to straightforward R&B Hip-Hop. BTS layers vocals, guitars and chanted harmonies, to kick out a house party track that will make stylin' audiences jump and scream for more.

Their hard driving debut pop album, 'Go Easy It's My First ..." has some catchy hooks and audience grabbing dance tracks, with fusion featured energy that smashes through sound barriers.

Out On The Tiles

Prospect Hill LIVE !

Review and Photography by Micah Gummel.

I was fortunate enough to photograph and review Prospect Hill, soon after their album release, IMPACT, was celebrated with a party at the famous Wilbur Theatre in Boston, MA.

This time the setting was at Wally's Pub, which is well known as Hampton Beach's oldest biker hang out. With stellar food, awesome staff and friendly clientele, the venue was ready to welcome Prospect Hill. The stage was decked out with the band's banners, projecting blue lights.
