The Masterminds are back with “Little Bird”
Asbury Park, NJ – Asbury Park rock band the Masterminds today released their new single “Little Bird” on all platforms. The song follows the release of their third album, Orange Days, in January and continues the band’s quest to uplift and inspire listeners via the power of rock ‘n roll.
“Little Bird” showcases the band’s knack for catchy melodies and clever lyircs, while it’s guitar riff channels much loved psyche-rock bands of yesteryear such as the Sonics and the Yardbirds.
Masterminds’ songs such as “Flashback” and “Boomerang” received extensive terrestrial and satellite (Sirius XM’s “Rodney Bingenheimer Show”) radio airplay in the U.S., as did their January release “Mesmerized.”
Jangle Pop Hub described the Masterminds’ special sound this way:
“Imagine the ‘50s pop melodies of Buddy Holly and then infuse it with the cool perfections of the early 2000’s indie-pop scene…and you have stumbled across the brilliant originality and beautiful simplicity of this New Jersey based act.”
With features on Last Day Deaf, Indie is Not a Genre, Surviving the Golden Age, and the Keep Walking Blog, among many others, The Masterminds have created a buzz in the musical blogosphere both in the U.S. and around the world.
“Little Bird” was composed by Masterminds singer/guitarist Tim English. The album was recorded at Lakehouse Studios in Asbury Park and produced by Nick Semanchik.
