ROCKWiRED ARTiST OF MONTH: BLAME BABY

ou voted, the polls have closed and the winner of the 97th ROCKWIRED ARTIST OF THE MONTH title is BLAME BABY on the strength of their new single THE FLOOR. It surprises me that power pop hasn't seen much of a resurgence in an age where pop music is bigger than ever. I've always been a sucker for a three minute song with melodies executed with a full throttle, rock and roll approach and some punchy guitar riffs. It's an approach that you don't hear all at often on today's pop radio but the LA-based band BLAME BABY aren't concerning themselves with that. This new power trio is more interested in creating a pure pop rock moment which kind of explains their penchant for releasing singles as opposed to EPs or LPs. Late last year they released their debut single HEADCASE a surf rock anthem about self-realization and loss of identity. The subject matter is a little heavy for something wrapped in the in such delectable power pop. Now, the trio comprised of lead singer and guitarist JESSE JOHNSON, bassist OMAR D. BRANCATO and MATT TUCCI on drums, have released their newest single, THE FLOOR, another energetic burst of pop rock which is all about sweet surrender and keeping the dream simple - another sentiment you don't hear in a lot of what pop radio has to offer these days.
