Every once in a while a group comes a long that not only
knows exactly what they are doing, but also is found mid execution. UK’s
Superbird appears to be one of these bands. Consisting of Joe Fin (Guitar),
Alex Ash (Drums) and Freddy Sidero (Bass), all of whom share vocal duties,
Superbird coalesces into a great funky pop trio with a sound tapped right from
the veins of Prince and Bowie.
The fun loving attitude of the band compliments their
flamboyant and feathered image. In the color drenched peacock of a video for their song “Cola Bottle Fizz,” they let you know they are here to glam it up with a grain of salt or sugar in this case. This rocking little baby reads as an ode to pleasure which compares the object of affection to teeth rotting
sweets. Joe Fin's slinky guitar work glistens over the groove laid
down by Freddy Sidero (this song in particular contains some very cool bass
action). Alex’s drums keep the beat up and moving. The band dances around
colorful rooms singing phrases like “Strawberry I’m whipped/creamin’ my
bon-bombshell” and “Your popping candies makes my eyes dilate.” I also
particularly dig “You’re naughty ways
keep me craving more, You’re clothes look better on the floor, baby.” Oh Marcy remember “Sex and Candy”. The song has a similar
can’t get this out of my head factor. It rips definite groove that sticks in
your brain like a Jolly Rancher in the gap slight gap between you back teeth.
There’s a big helping of humor to go with the good music.
They are undoubtedly having a great time, and it’s just as apparent that they
are as talented on their instruments as they are at reveling. Check out “Cola
Bottle Fizz” and their other videos for more of Superbird’s fun, funky music!
For an added bonus, an acoustic version is included. Watch Joe
take his Strat to task with a popping yellow pick. Alex lifts your spirits with
his stellar rich frosted bare bones style playing. The double dose of guitar
playing is only enhanced by the double dip of their voices combining easy like
a chocolate shake with a cherry on top. Shake it up like cherry pop.
