Boyce Avenue "For The First Time"(The Script)

Back to January 3rd on my blog, I wrote about a heartfelt tune, "For The First Time" from The Script, an Irish alternative rock band. And today I'd like to introduce a newcomer Boyce Avenue, an American acoustic rock band, who have just released a music video for their cover of The Script song "For The First Time," a really beautiful song, that relied less on acoustic guitar and had more of a focus on electric and piano, so touching!
We all know that story of the small town band that gets noticed on YouTube and makes it big. Boyce Avenue by three Manzano brothers, are the latest band in this trend. However, they are not just another name to add to the ever-expanding list! The band deliver fresh acoustic sound and songs with real sentimental meaning. They embody what all music should be in this time of dance and techno takeover! A tough ride at first but Boyce Avenue, named after the street in Sarasota, Florida where they grew up, has always known that music was what they were meant to be doing.
There was no better way to start the performance than with a famous cover, which is how the band was first discovered! So as their lead singer, youngest of the three brothers, Alejandro asked if I had ever felt like a plastic bag a confused viewer suddenly realized what was going on. Boyce Avenue took a good approach with their set list, a mixture of covers and their own material. Don't be mistaken in thinking this is a one-trick wonder band of slow paced songs and soppy lyrics. These songs had more of a good quality feel and once these songs were presented Boyce Avenue had found their comfort within the crowd by mixing crowd pleasers, famous covers and moving songs.
In an increasingly saturated music scene and at the risk of sounding like other pop and rock bands, the boys recognize that staying relevant takes more than merely playing music. Boyce Avenue will definitely have a future in music and I will be following them eagerly. This band is inspiring, to think how far they have come from posting videos on YouTube to touring Europe. Let's just hope they continue to do what they do best, make original music that touches the hearts of their most loyal fans to first time listeners! The cover of The Script song "For The First Time," show Boyce Avenue did what they did best and stuck to famous covers.
