NEONNOAH

Somewhere between emo retropop and early 2000s pop-punk is where music aficionados would place Dallas-based rockers, NeonNoah. Over the last year, this four-piece has been steadily gaining ground in a scene dominated by bearded, banjo wielding hipsters and hip-hop mix masters. Following the positive response from its most recent musical efforts, the band is now prepped to deliver its crowdfunded debut EP, Reaching For Constellations on Feb. 27, 2015.

The six song EP is tight, not auto-tuned to death and catchy as all-get-out. Co-frontmen Esteban Flores and Conner McKinzie have an unmatched vocal rapport that echoes Motion City Soundtrack’s vocalist Justin Pierre, with more warmth and less cacophony. The remaining members, Jacob Norris and Kaleb Polk, add a glossy, adamantine sound that perfectly highlights Flores and McKinzie’s crooning. As far as singles go, the record contains fan favorites “Heart” and “Disaster”, but don’t skip the intro track “Daylight”.

Reaching For Constellations is equal parts love, heartbreak and the best synth dance party you have ever been to; a pop-infused, rock concoction that will sneak you out of your dorm, keep you up all night partying and then drive you home in the morning.
