Boy In The Bubble plays with one foot in the present and another planted solidly in the past. About half of the songs are raw rockers -- imagine a West Side Story knife fight between the children of Bowie, the Beatles, the Kinks, the Stones and T. Rex in one gang and Beck, Rufus Wainright, Radiohead, the White Stripes and PJ Harvey in the other (its sweaty and it might hurt a little, but its mostly just for fun.) ///---/// The rest of the songs are quieter: songs like "Stroll the Sun" are, well, a little like walking in space. That means lyrics that are both ambitious and simple, and songs that feel like the Flaming Lips, M. Ward, Josh Ritter, and sometimes even Joanna Newsom.
“Boy in the Bubble play an arresting game of musical hopscotch…Alternating between soft and sighing, loud and sloppy, [singer Josh Seidenfeld] knows exactly where he's going—and he's intent on taking us with him. Call Songs From the City on the Sun indie-rock at a burlesque show. Call it David Bowie on the verge of a meltdown. Call it what you like, but don't miss this Sun set.”
