Vista Blue - I Wanna Be a Huntington
By their prolific standards, it's been ages since we heard from Nashville power pop heroes Vista Blue (although it's only a week or so ago since side project Ralphie's Red Ryders released their debut single https://ralphiesredryders.bandcamp.com/releases). The band have featured on here often enough that you probably already know if you like them or not. They've been very consistent putting out numerous catchy releases, some sitting slightly on the pop punk side of the fence, others on the power pop side. You know what you're getting with the band so I don't really need to rattle on.
The new release is a 3 track ep titled Rock Acrostics. It's a free download on Bandcamp and in these times of social distancing, Vista Blue are one of several bands determined to get their music out there to give an isolated public something to listen to. You can grab the ep here : ttps://wearevistablue.bandcamp.com/album/rock-acrostics
They promise more new music is on the way.
This song name checks Baltimore pop punkers The Huntingtons, the Ramones influenced band who formed in the 90's and recently featured on here with a track from their new album Muerto, Carcel, O Rocanrol! (https://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.com/2020/02/huntingtons-too-old-to-care.html). It's a timeless pop punk love song to a favourite band and it's called I Wanna Be A Huntington...
