One of the benchmarks of greatness is a group’s ability to transmit the energy of a studio recording and amplify it into an explosive live experience, and a band that can capture that live energy on a recording is a testament to a their musicianship. Even a cursory listen to Live At Blue Rock makes it obvious that Future Thieves has got the chops; the album’s enormous sound bursts with sonic vigor. If you close your eyes and listen, it feels like a highly personal performance, like Future Thieves is playing a show in the room just for you.
Live At Blue Rock mostly features tracks from the band’s first full length release Horizon Line—from the emotionally soaring vocals of standout “Rosie” to pulsating crowd-pleaser “The Floor,” along with four new unreleased tracks, the songs flow and mesh flawlessly. Live At Blue Rock is a masterful release.
