First Thoughts Review: 'Electric Light' by Boxes



FBC First Thoughts Review


Boxes are a completely new band to me. Based in Manchester they are lucky as the British country music scene is thriving there.


Dobro combined with subtle Lap steel introduces 'Electric Lights' perfectly making the listener want to keep listening to find out more. It's the only country song I know that has what I can only describe as a radio type announcement in the middle. It works very well within this catchy uptempo song.


Great musicianship and great harmonies. I strongly suggest checking 'Electric Lights' out and give Boxes a follow.
