-----------------------
Music is about freedom of expression, not pleasing others. Suburban
PhiladelphiaÆs Pollock epitomizes this state of mind by writing songs without
any constraints or preconceived notions. The band strives to maintain its own
distinctive sound and does not feel the need to be categorized in a particular
genre. Nevertheless, Pollock is sure to please listeners of artists like Mae,
Steel Train, Bob Dylan, Jack Johnson, Brand New, Dashboard Confessional, The
Beatles, Copeland, and The Early November. The vast appeal of Pollock can be
attributed to the group membersÆ diverse musical interests, spanning rock, emo,
folk, jazz, punk, classical, and hip-hop.
Pollock consists of musicians who have been playing together for years and as a
result produce a tight, unified vibe. Chris Davidson (Bass/Piano), Jesse Ponnock
(Vocals/Guitar), and Rob Pavlenco (Percussion/Vocals) were members of
emo-alternative-rock group Blame Summer, which developed a loyal local fan base.
Now, Pollock fuses individual talent and experience as a unit with moving bass
lines, solid drum beats, alluring guitar parts, and poignant, thoughtful words
to greet the musical world with a fresh, inventive sound.
The release of PollockÆs self-titled EP is sure to interest listeners of various
demographics. The disc starts off by immediately grasping attention with the
upbeat, poetically lamentable ôMr. Green, In the Library, with the Revolverö.
Other tracks like ôCatching Flies with Vinegar (On Your Way Home)ö are laden
with poppy, memorable melodies, while some display a darker, insightful side of
PonnockÆs lyricismùôTony Montana Real Estateö boasts eerily haunting verses a
booming chorus sure to awe audiences. Still, one of the EPÆs most impressive
tracks is acoustic song ôAnywhere, Anywhere,ö an emotional anthem fans will
thoroughly enjoy shouting at the top of their lungs at live performances.
Things are undoubtedly looking up for Pollock; the band is constantly developing
and enthusiastically writing new songs. As of now, Chris, Jesse, and Rob look
forward to playing shows both in and beyond Philadelphia, as the group looks to
journey to various locations in the northeast this summer. No matter what,
wherever they perform, Pollock is sure to stir and inspire audiences with its
captivating choruses, engaging guitar work, and sentimental lyrics in which
nearly anyone will find personal meaning.
