Bart & The Bedazzled - Blue Motel

Описание: 'Blue Motel', taken from "Blue Motel" by Bart & The Bedazzled.

"This is track number one of the new album by the same name. It was recorded in Boyle Heights at Palomino Sound Studios and at least 2/3 of that onto analog tape. The Jangly guitars are courtesy of Wayne Faler (Dream Boys).

We like to fuse 80s sounds with subtle jazz undertones in our chord voicings and a more 60s approach to song structure. Comparisons are made to Prefab Sprout and Cleaners From Venus, and while that is super flattering, the lyrics are pure L.A. noir. It’s a song of regret and redemption, of losing and finding oneself in a city that forgives and forgets. The motel is a place to land, somewhere to hide out while you plot your next move; it's a very west coast story.

I see the protagonist as someone with a checkered past coming to terms with a strange, bewildering present and accepting it. The album had to start here before getting into any other stories."
-Bart Davenport
