Sixteen Cities
Posted April 20, 2010
By IronJedi,
The Centricity label continues to pursue, sign and acquire distribution for overlooked, yet obviously committed, talented young bands. April sees the release of their most recent find, modern pop/rock act Sixteen Cities. The band’s self-titled debut is a collection of airwave-ready music sure to tickle the ears of music-lovers everywhere.
The guys from Sixteen Cities earns an easy comparison to Relient K’s Matt Thiessen and company, especially projects from earlier in their catalog. There’s a distinct playfulness and youthful yearning that characterizes the band’s music, sans the cynicism or angst that tends to creep into longer-lived bands’ repertoires.
Sixteen Cities music is fun & filled with catchy melodies, yet their lyrics are tempered by a maturity & spiritual self-awareness. If Everyday Sunday, Hawk Nelson, Nevertheless, Run Kid Run and Stellar Kart are favorites, check into Sixteen Cities. View All Music And Book Reviews By IronJedi | View IronJedi's Profile
