The Bust (Pittsburgh)
4 piece Indie-Rock outfit from Pittsburgh.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
For over 10 years, Barry, Rick, Matt and Dan have either been playing music together as a
group or apart in different bands. Two years ago they decided to put it all back together once again. With a strong dedication to writing new, innovative music and a decade of experience
as musicians, they have transformed into one of the truly different groups in Pittsburgh. With
a sound that Aaron Jentzen of the Pittsburgh City Paper calls a mixture of "Who-like adrenaline, quirky R&B, and Big Muff guitar fuzz" or Taxi, the World's leading independent
A&R company, describes as "Avant Guard" or as Larry Luther from Mr. Small's Funhouse
states it, "Unique as hell," The Bust play to express their everyday feelings and emotions about life and hope that when you listen to these songs, you share those feelings with them.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Yes, Pittsburgh. It's not too bad here.
