KNAPSACKHEROES!: A Look At Where Music Is Heading

By Gretchen Burton


There is a statement that could easily be made about music. This statement is that it affects almost everyone. You cannot seem to go anywhere these days without hearing music over speakers. You could wait along a sidewalk and people would gladly share with you what their favorite musical artists are, their favorite songs, and music related memories. Surely in this stint of interviews, you would hear the band name KNAPSACKHEROES!

There is quite a bit that a person might care to learn about this band. As you read on, you are going to get introduced to the music that they make, and where you are going to be expected to catch these guys as the year rolls on. By the end of the article you should have a good idea as to why this band might easily make an iconic list of artists in the near future.

You see, there are plenty of ways that people have tried to describe this band to those that they want to turn on to the sound. Some people compare the instrumentals to Duran Duran and the entire mixture is those popular hooks and guitar stylings of Duran Duran being crushed by Heavy D. Sound like something you might be interested in listening to?

The thing to know about this band is that they wear a number of different hats. Many bands like this one have been able to do this and make each song that they release as good or even better than the last. Speaking in terms of their released EP, KNAPSACKHEROES! have made a selection of songs that are not the same and really take people who are listening through a musical paths through a number of different styles. Hip hop, electronica, pop music and more all in one EP.

While there might be a number of ways to describe the sound, there is a pretty clear track as to where the band is headed currently. They are in contention against several other bands in a massive Battle of the Bands competition run by the Hard Rock Cafe. Each of four regions is presenting a pallet of bands, and each of the regions is able to send one band to a massive rock concert in the UK. The grand prize winner of the four finalists will get to play the main stage, while the other play indie sets.

It would be an understatement to suggest that people are not already really getting behind this band. The fact that they are in contention in this competition alone is indicative of the thousands of fans that they already have.

Perhaps the main point to be taken from this piece would be that you want to hop on the wagon before it just looks like you were late. This band might not appeal to everyone, but for everyone who can appreciate diversity and unique sound, KNAPSACKHEROES! should definitely be on your playlist.

KNAPSACKHEROES!
