Hartford, Connecticut’s Bronze Radio Return has traveled the world for nearly a decade, spreading the joyful sound of one-part dance music and equal parts roots-rock. Featuring: Chris Henderson – guitar, vocals; Rob Griffith – drums, vocals; Patrick Fetkowitz – guitar; Matt Warner – keys, vocals; Bob Tanen – bass, vocals, the band has racked up more than 60 million streams on Spotify, and with songs such as “Light Me Up,” “Further On,” and “Shake, Shake, Shake,” they have impressively notched nearly 100 high-profile placements ranging from the 2014 film St. Vincent, to commercials for Nissan and Starbucks, to numerous television shows. Their 2016 LP Light Me Up captured the attention of industry and listeners alike. Their new 12-song album will be rolled out as a series of singles and EPs starting in the fall of 2018 before culminating in the release of the full body of work in 2019.

Positives:
Holding to their signatures sound, the five-piece band keeps their roots firmly in tact on "Come With Us."
Bottom Line:
While the band still hold strong to their core sound, “Come With Us” offers an evolving chapter in the bands sound, pushing their sound forward with the culmination of experiences to date. The band continues to grow musically and so does their sound and songwriting. The band explains; “This latest collection of songs is a culmination of our many adventures together over the years. It’s a representation of an evolving creative process that changes with time and perspective. Who wants to read a book where every chapter is the same? This chapter is a continuation of what we started when the band began and tells a story of where we are now. The throwback elements are still there, but we want listeners to breathe the fresh air of a sound they haven’t yet expected from us." This essence is clearly exhibited on “Come With Us” and Bronze Radio Return has certainly ascertained their goals of continuity of sound and progression.
