Over the summer I was
all like “Hey, who’s going to see Bare Wires?” when they were slated to hit
Denver that next evening. The answer
was… nobody. I found out they had
imploded halfway through the tour that was to bring them to my fair city. Enough has been written about that, so
onward! Matthew Melton is a
songwriting machine and has quickly rebounded with his new outfit, Warm Soda
(Rob Good and Sam Lefebvre round out the trio). Warm Soda will naturally be compared to Bare Wires due to
Mr. Melton’s distinctive song craft and voice, but there is a little more pep
in this group’s sound. The evidence is apparent on their debut 7”, ‘Reaction b/w
In Another World’, courtesy of Southpaw Records. The two power-pop gems on this 45 fit firmly between the
aforementioned Bare Wires and another Melton vehicle, Snake Flower 2. Vocal hooks, smart instrumentation and
laid-back-yet-controlled execution propel this debut record. If history is any
indication, Warm Soda will be cranking out more hits in no time! Hurry up and get the 7” on peachy marble
vinyl if ya still can.
Thanks For
