The new face of alt-country is here in the self-titled debut of the Baltimore based grassroots phenoms, The Bridge. Taking a freewheeling approach founded by such legendary bands as Little Feat and Los Lobos, this debut offers a fresh and delectable palette of American roots rock. This 3rd effort by the veteran's of the summer festival veteran's showcases what the buzz is all about. Tight and polished describes standouts like "14 Days" and "Easy Jane." An excellent genre bender fusing bluegrass, folk and good old rock-n-roll, The Bridge is a solid new face to be reckoned with.
