Description
The band’s fifth studio release clocks in at 41 minutes; features 11 all new cuts, and is their first collective effort since 2018’s critically acclaimed Rocket.
In the mid ’80s into the early ’90s, The New Bohemians were a band that broke onto the scene at a time when the music world was in the midst of change. With the success of the hit single, and MTV video, “What I Am” from Shooting Rubberbands at the Stars, on heavy rotation, it was just a matter of time before the whole world found out about the special little band out of Dallas, Texas.
As a whole, it’s an incredibly solid effort, one that soundly revisits and captures the magic of those early first two albums that connected with so many. Hunter and the Dog Star is an infectious, earthy collection of songs that retains a crisp, organic “small batch” feel of songs that were truly crafted with love and adoration in a family-like collaborative effort. There’s a special bond between these musicians, and it feels re-vitalized and fresh here. Good music should transport the listener. The New Bohemians have done just that with Hunter and the Dog Star. Highly recommended.
