Artist Spotlight: Long Lost

Closing out your Friday and headed into the weekend with a brand new edition of Artist Spotlight! We keep it local as always in Boston as we run into a local act that goes by the name of Long Lost. The band consists of Joe Boynton on lead vocals, Mat Morin on guitar, Mike Moschetto on bass, and Aviv Marotz on drums. If some of these guys look familiar to you, that's because the band is comprised of members of Stoneham's own Transit ( a former Artist Spotlight feature) and Aviator. The new act is gearing up to release their debut album "Save Yourself, Start Again" on August 6th. The band have also just made available a song from the forthcoming release called "This Love Will Grow", and the track is an intense, soaring rocker that hits at you almost instantaneously with it's insatiable melodies and hard nosed rhythms that show a sense of self-confidence and assurance from the group as to who they want to be as musicians and where they want to go from here. A brand new act that I can already tell from first listen has the audacity and drive to pay it all forward.

For more information on the boys in Long Lost, head on over to their Facebook page located here and see what these guys are all about. The band can be followed on Twitter as well from over here and communicate directly with the guys to find out when they'll be making their way through the Beantown area again with a concert appearance.
