Blow Up Hollywood
Blow Up Hollywood, the spellbinding band from New York, is the musical equivalent of art house films or literary fiction. With the release of The Diaries of Private Henry Hill, their 3rd studio album, this talented and intricate collective of musicians express a musical style that is unparalleled. How the journals of Private Henry Hill made it into Blow Up Hollywood's hands is a story in and of itself. Last year, principal songwriter/guitarist/vocalist Steve Messina, who volunteers at a homeless shelter in NYC, encountered a particularly pathetic homeless man who came in for the night. Steve talked to the man for hours as the man relayed the story of his son, Henry, a young soldier who fought and died in Iraq. Inconsolable, the man left the shelter that night with only the clothes on his back, leaving Steve with the experience of reading his son's diaries. Three in all, Steve had poured over these journals. He was so moved by this young man's All-American life that he wanted to honor the memory of Henry Hill by writing his story, song by song. And, so he did. From minimalist to full blown orchestral ambience. The music is simultaneously progressive and retrospective, blending layered sonic landscapes, developed melodic movements, and deeply emotional sensibilities. It draws from the core creative values of the classic rock greats and yet lives on its own plane, peerless and alone. Blow Up Hollywood has made the quantum leap from critical pariahs to their current rarified status as Americas most challenging rock band for true music junkies. Fall of 2013 brings the stellar new Cd BLUE SKY BLOND, featuring the hit SHINE. WACBIZ welcomes their work and offers original scores and custom compositions.
