We keep on trucking this week with an all new edition of Artist Spotlight! Today, we head out to Chicopee, MA and check in with the youthful and energetic sounds of Boardwalks. The group consists of Matt Sykes, Kyle Lusty, Michael Roy, and Connor Presz. The band's sound is a mature and focused blend of pop-punk similar to the likes of Yellowcard with a little Taking Back Sunday thrown in for good measure to balance the sound out and give it a little diversity and clout in the process. Like I said numerous times before on the blog, I grew up on this type of music while in high school, and I can clearly identify with the musical message embedded within the lyrics of their music, and this makes me feel like I'm 17 again and there's absolutely nothing wrong with going back in time and revisiting the spirit of my youth. A terrific local band that is definitely deserving of a notable mention here on the blog. Some terrific songs for you to check out from them include "Stare" and "Ray Ashe".
For more information on the boys in Boardwalks, head on over to their Facebook page and 'Like' it over
