Bridges and Powerlines will bring their self-described “optimist fuzz pop” to Detroit’s Old Miami on November 14th as part of their fall tour which launched at CMJ 2010. They’ve played many notable gigs over their years together, including two appearances at SXSW, and annual appearances at CMJ.
This tour will preface the release of their second full-length album, Eve, which comes out January 18, 2011. The album will examine life before September 11, 2001, a significant date to most Americans, but especially for the members of Bridges and Powerlines. Andrew Wood (keys/vocals), David Boyd (guitar/vocals), Keith Sigel (bass/vocals), and Mason Ingram, of Connecticut, Kentucky, North Carolina and Texas respectively, they were all drawn to the city out of the nostalgic goodwill that developed as the nation recovered. The city they soon called home was beginning a indie pop boom, and the four of them, with their shared love of intricately arranged three-minute pop songs became a part of it.
