Rootsy rock group Bronze Radio Return will be performing
tonight at Crowbar in Ybor City, FL. The 6 piece band that formed in Hartford,
Connecticut are on tour promoting their third studio album, Up, On & Over.
It should be a great show in a small venue, but I must admit that I am equally excited
for their opening band, a local group by the name of Mercy McCoy.
Following the
roots-rock genre set by Bronze Radio, Mercy McCoy combines folk, blues and pop,
finding a very pleasant combination. They are led by front man Stefan
Scheuermann, who provides the appropriate easy-going vocals. I've had the
pleasure of seeing Mercy McCoy a few times, and for me, they remind me most of
a younger Dawes. (One of my favorites)
Appropriately timed, the group released their first EP this
very morning. It contains four tracks, and I’m a fan on first listen! My early
favorite is “Just in Time.” This EP joins an acoustic version of “Brighter in
the Dark,” as the band’s first material available on their website. I recommend everyone take a listen: http://www.mercymccoy.com/category/music/
Mercy McCoy should take the stage around 8:30pm tonight.
Bronze Radio Return is also accompanied by Red Wanting Blue. Tickets are
available at the door for $12
