DESCRIPTION:
Brighton MA is a product of a wide range of modern music. Their sound is lyrically driven with no small debt to indie, folk, noise pop, and the classic alternative.

Matt Kerstein and drummer Sam Koentopp began playing together in Scotland Yard Gospel Choir just out of college. They soon became indie press darlings on the strength of extensive college radio play and tours with Fiest, Spoon, and Arcade Fire. In 2006, they left SYGC and started Brighton MA with arranger/guitarist Jim Tuerk in order to more fully realize their musical ambitions. The addition of guitarist Joe Darnaby and bassist Jon Ozaksut have helped drive the band towards an urgent sound filled with intricately layered guitars, a rattling heaviness, and driving simplicity.

Although based in Chicago the band is named for the Boston neighborhood where singer Matt Kerstein was born.

We hope you enjoy their performance here at JBTV!

Lyrics:

Set up for failure
Please forgive me
On behalf of all the wannabes
Who tried but couldn't reach
Tried so deep inside
Ran out of ways to die
And be reborn
Into stranger and stranger and stranger times
For fear of getting lost
Once and for all
In these sweet delusions
I could never live without you
I know everything about you
Couldn't get on any other way

Moving on with the warm ones
In these sweet delusions
