Free Music Notes for The Bridge
Free Music Review: Solid from start to finish
Hit: 5 Stars
This disk is solid from start to finish with a nice blend of funk and rhythm that will stick with you. I can't wait for their next project.Free Music Review: Great everyday album
Hit: 5 Stars
This album is solid through and through, time and time again. There are two absolute gems on it in Angelina, which conjurs up one of the most easy going sounds I've ever heard, and Chains, which shows the true energy (and synergy) of this band. Definitely recommend it to anyone who likes their music served like a hot bowl of gumbo.Free Music Review: Look out for The Bridge!

I first heard about The Bridge when a friend caught an opening set of them at an Umphrey's McGee show at Ram's Head Live in Baltimore in early 2006. That summer, without realizing what I was getting myself into (more on that later), I saw a little thing on The Bridge and an upcoming series of their shows at a cozy Baltimore venue called The 8x10, and decided to check it out.
Long story short: I saw them 4 more times over the next 7 weeks, and have since been to 14 more Bridge shows (for a total of 19 shows). They have become far and away my favorite band, and this CD is a perfect studio introduction to their music. That said, no CD can compare to their live music. The Bridge has developed a rabid following in Baltimore (their home) and has, over the past few years, grown to where they are very near breaking through, big time. Their music is 100% worthy of their name - they are known for "bridging" various genres as diverse as soul, bluegrass, jazz, rock n' roll (of course), and even some almost livetronica-sounding jams (at their live shows). Their shows regularly feature a few covers; in the time I've been following them they've covered acts such as The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Little Feat, Grateful Dead, Bob Marley, Van Morrison, James Brown, The Talking Heads, Ray LaMontagne, Traffic, Sublime, and even played Crazy Train at one of their shows a couple years ago.
Cris Jacobs, Kenny Liner, Dave Markowitz, Patrick Rainey, and Mike Gambone. Remember those names, and most importantly buy this CD and get out to a Bridge show (thebridgemusic dot com for the schedule). It won't be long before those of us seeing them now can brag to the rest of the world we knew The Bridge and their music long before they started selling out huge venues and headlining festivals worldwide.

If you liked Little Feat, early Steely Dan, soulful rock music, go and buy this cd. It is some of the best rock I have heard in a long time. Tight but flowing, smart but cool, well played but comforting. Hope they keep on going with this same attitude...Free Music Review: This Rocks

I heard these guys live on XM radio (Starbucks XM Cafe, channel 45) and they were awesome. Each song sounds totally different from the last and every single one of them rocks. If you have an eclectic taste for all different types of music like my house does, you will absolutely love these guys. Blues without being too blue, funky, their folk background shows through excellent lyrics, amazing mandolin and guitar playing with enough bluegrass to keep your heart pumping. They are going to go far, for sure!
