Staring at the Ceiling

Staring at the Ceiling...a slew of radio-friendly, hook-driven, original songs - upbeat yet mellow, thoughtful but always accessible. Hackbarth selected tunes that spanned almost three years if writing, pulling material from many of the styles he has come to call his own. From the optimistic "Guam" to the quintessential love ballad, "Last Girl", there is something for everyone on one of the best alternative/pop albums of the year...
Customer Review: Great album from a great new band.
The release of Acoustic Radio's first album, "Staring at the Ceiling", coupled with my wish that great independent bands get the exposure they deserve, was enough to prompt me to review my first album. Having moved from Boulder to Los Angeles almost 2 years ago, I was thrilled to find that Acoustic Radio finally had an album out. Having followed the band, as well as the careers of members' prior to the bands formation, I could not wait to get my hands on my own copy of "Staring at the Ceiling". Every time I listen to this album I have a different favorite song. The lyrics are meaningful and insightful and, front man Andy Hackbarth's voice is one of the best in a crop of great, new and largely undiscovered voices. The melodies ebb and flow, at some times upbeat and addictive and at other times calm, peaceful and full of meaning. The musical talent in this band is unsurpassed. My favorites include the opening track, "Postcards from Florida", the catchy "7 Stairs", the upbeat, quirky "Anywhere but Here" and the soulful "Taxi". This is definitely an album worth checking out for both fans of popular alternative music as well as anyone looking for a fresh voice and sound. I can only hope they get around to visiting us out here in LA. I also know they have plenty of material and can't wait for their next album.
