Artist Spotlight: The Hotel Year

Got another edition of Artist Spotlight all ready for you to check out! Today, we head over to Dudley, MA and check out the vivacious sounds of The Hotel Year. The band consists of Christian, Cody, Chris, and Sam. The band's music is a mixture of early 00's post-punk bands such as Taking Back Sunday and The Early November with an innovative twist on it that is completely all their own and stands out prominently from the other types of bands currently embedded within the Boston music scene. I practically grew up on this type of music in high school, and I can clearly identify with the lyrics and melodies eloquently described within the confines of their music that takes me back to a simpler time when music was deeply passionate and bands really had a knack for affecting the moods of the listeners and reeling them in to make them feel like they're part of the act. A terrific local band that is definitely ready to take the next step forward in their careers. Some great tracks for you to check out from them include "Our Lives Would Make A Sad, Boring Movie" and "Vacancy".

For more info on the guys in The Hotel Year, head on over to their Facebook page located here and find out everything you need to know about the guys. The band is also on Twitter, and you can find them here and see if the band will be making a pit stop in the Boston area sometime soon for a concert appearance. The band's latest album "It Never Goes Out" is now available for free streaming and download via their Bandcamp page at this address here.
