The Immigrants — an underground band out of Boston, consisting of lead vocalist Bill Sheridan on guitar and his brother Dan on drums. Visit http://www.theimmigrants.com. At The Causeway, a rock club across the street from the Boston Garden, The Immigrants take the stage. Outside, on the elevated train tracks, a green line trolley car rumbles by the window of The Causeway as The Immigrants launch into a song called "Subway Station". The Noise, Rock around Boston: These newcomers sport an intriguing sound with an incantatory edge not too far short of compelling. Their melodic instincts are quite keen and the vocalist's phrasing is original and chuck full of irresistible hooks. The next Morphine? Watch this space. Pick hit: Subway Station. From 1987-1990, Bill studied songwriting and guitar at the Berklee College of Music in Boston while Dan went to NYU. The Immigrants released their 16-song CD entitled Charlestown on Railway House Records. "How cool underground music really can be."Baby Sue Music Review, Atlanta, Georgia Amazingly unpretentious music from this duo. If you're looking for busy arrangements and mountains of studio tricks, you can skip to the next review. But if you like smart pop delivered in a straight forward fashion with no frills or gimmicks, you'll want to check out the Immigrants. My favorite tunes here are Jackie Boy, Changemaker, and Shot to Pieces. This here thing goes to show how cool underground music really can be. Visit http://www.theimmigrants.com.
