I headed to the Drake last night to interview the Great Bloomers for an upcoming episode of Soundcheck, and stuck around to see them play later on. I last saw the Bloomers play two summers ago at Track and Field, and since I liked them back then and bought their EP, I was interested in seeing how far they’ve come. They have a new album called Speak of Trouble coming out on April 21st so they mostly played songs from that, but also this song ‘Black Rising Fire’ from the aforementioned 2007 EP. Watch for their episode of Soundcheck in April.
As for the show, they were really good! Their new songs have a lot of cool time changes and lots of awesome piano.
