The Broomstars are coming for you! From their Asheville, North Carolina beginnings to their new CD release, the Broomstars have blazed forth and are zooming ahead.
Broomstars, how Chinese Dynasties once referred to comets, are few and far
between. Voted as one of the best undiscovered bands in Asheville’s Mountain Xpress, this comet plans to circulate around for a while.
Jason’s lyrics and spirit lift one to new heights. Jason Daniello, on lead vocals and guitar, has been in orbit for some time. His former project, Jason and the
Argonauts, enjoyed success in the Southwest and from coast to coast.
On bass, Jared White juxtaposes the various musical genres from which the Broomstars draw inspiration, creating a solar system of vibration.
On drums, Clayton Jones lends the fire, fueling the heavenly body of the Broomstars. Liz LeBleu, married to Jason, chimes in with vocals that mirror her man’s as she creates new avenues through the stars with her synth sounds. Jeff Santiago, who recently joined the enterprise, skyrockets out, lending guitar and vocal power.
The Broomstars’ new recording, The Silvermine Sessions, transports you through atmospheres of space and sound. In particular, the track “My Heart Trembles” is heavily saturated with lush, sonic landscapes using all analog gear. Bass lines pulsate, ring-modulated guitars delicately swoon, and the synth’s bombastic, yet sometimes subtle melodies emerge. Good “old-fashioned” knob twisting provides swirling textures at the end of the song. The result is a remarkably vivid rock sound, rampant with the band’s trademark inventiveness. This indie rock synth pop experience will leave you bathed in moon dust. Get lost in space with the Broomstars.
