With its latest LP, Snowbyrd has hit on a mix of quirky-but-catchy tunes and studio wizardry that makes for a great intro to the band.The brothers at the core of San Antonio quartet Snowbyrd — Chris and Scott Lutz — have kept eyes on the prize for 20 years.
Oftentimes,"the day that we learned the song, we recorded it," Chris Lutz said."[Drummer] Juan [Ramos] and [Bassist] Kris [Zebrowski] came in, and we said, 'This is the song we're gonna record today' and showed them. Six or seven takes, and that's the basic recording." Taking a spontaneous recording approach can end up with shambolic results if a band doesn't come armed with strong songs, and fortunately Snowbyrd has catchy songs for days.'s"Ol' Beyonder" is a gem, with a vibe reminiscent of the Todd Rundgren classic"Couldn't I Just Tell You."
Chris Lutz's vocals are assuredly out of step with current pop music trends. No auto-tune here — though he certainly doesn't shy away from multi-tracking vocals, a trick he thanked David Bowie for.In many musical acts, one member serves as the spokesperson — the face of the group — while the other is the mad genius behind the curtain.
