Airplay International's Country Group Of The Year - 2003
Band/artist history
The Bridge Band is centered about the original music of songwriters Jerry Baldassaro and Charley Frehley - they deliver a sound that is embraced by audiences world-wide. The Bridge Band Bands intricate guitar work transcends ones perception of how two guitars should sound. The individually unique finger styles of Baldassaro and Frehley weave themselves into a totally new sound . The Bridge (Band) was a regular part of the famous Fast Folk Cafe scene from 1994 until its closing in 2000. With three CDs under their belt, their music is now being played in over 80 countries . The Bridge was chosen "Country Group of The Year "2004" by Airplay International - an amazing feat considering Country wasn't their bag.

Anything else?
Review Alexis Berman -Planeta Rock Magazine September - 2003 Album -Headin Home The Nashville Session Artist The Bridge Band (USA) Label KMA Records Nashville The leaders of country and folk without any doubt are the North Americans. Since the 60s they have continued to place themselves among the best musicians in the world in a genre influenced and created by them. Like many of the groups The Bridge Band was born out of an eagerness to keep flame of this genre burning as the best representatives of the past had although nowadays it is often performed and watered down in some regions of the US. With a country style akin to Lightfoot and The Eagles and the folk of James Taylor and Jackson Brown, The Bridge Band delivers wonderful songs that result in a very worthy artistic exhibit of the genre, especially in the opening country rock (a la Glen Frey) One Foot Out The Door and the ballad Youre Everything To Me in the style of Kenny Loggins two of the best on the CD. The campy Mighty Fine Mule is one of the best among the best since, really, all the songs are above 7 points (out of 10). Congratulations boys, on a job well done!
