Hatch The Bird- The Wait
by Tim Wenger
The Wait, the debut album from local blues-rockers Hatch The Bird, cracked in May. Since then, the record has been taking listeners back to a time when quality lyricism combined with melodic, hard-hitting guitar lines to create an alt-rock sound that doesn’t just sound good, it paints a picture in the listener’s mind.
Their style is a good cross between what you typically hear along the South Broadway indie rock circuit and the divey, smoke-filled blues bars of old. Songwriter Ian Hatch doesn’t disappoint, and the title track “The Wait” fills its duty, really inviting the listener in to Hatch’s mind and begging them out to a show.
