Artist Spotlight: DC Wonder

Starting off another week of Artist Spotlight as we cruise into the month of February! Today, we have Boston's own electronic trio known as DC Wonder taking the reigns for today. The band consists of Gene Shinozaki on lead vocals and guitar, Frank Watkoskey on bass, and Lyle Shaw on drums. The band has an energetic, pure electronic sounds that is similar to other newcomers like Capital Cities with a sharp and focused musical dynamic that is entirely their own creation, and doesn't strive to do too much either as it plays to its own strengths and relies on the collective talents of everyone gathered to make their best first impression as they can. I was impressed with what these boys brought to the table and what they had acquired musically that made them different and wholly unique, a quality that all musicians strive to acquire and one that is achieved through countless hours of practice and playing small venues in and around the Boston area to gain a following and build a buzz and aura around you that will only get stronger over time. A terrific local act deserving of a little push here on the site. Some recommended tracks to check out from them include "Just a Dream" and "Lift Me Up".
