Spontaneity: Bonny Doon – “A Lotta Things”
Bonny Doon
“A Lotta Things”
Longwave
What a great, smart ass song. Think Modest Mouse meets Ween. The melody is so wonderful, that guitar riff is perfect, and the beat pulls it along. It also ends just right. I think that best word for them (and I’m stealing from their bio) is nonchalant. It takes serious musicians to produce a beautiful song like this that seems to be so simple. Made up of Bill Lennox- vocals and guitar, Bobby Colombo- vocals and guitar, Jake Kmiecik- drums, and Joshua Brooks- bass, this is what cool sounds like. Stripping their music of the layers and orchestration of their first album, I think that the spontaneity of the new music is perfect. Listen and enjoy.
