SAM BURTON, DEAR DEPARTED

There are albums that at are at once new and yet are so seemingly  familiar....like an album that you have been listening to for years. They don't come around that often. Dream Big, the sophomore album by Dublin quartet Soda Blonde is one of those albums. thought that the album and the band were fine. But to me, lead singer Josh Kiszka had not yet figured out what to do with his voice. And twin brother Jake (guitar), younger brother Sam (bass), and Danny Wagner (drums), as good as they were as musicians, had not landed on a signature sound. They sounded too much like a Zeppelin knock-off and lacked originality.
