Ryan Montbleau Band - "I Can’t Wait" (video)

On September 21st, Boston based Ryan Montbleau Band will release Heavy on the Vine, the band’s third, independently released studio CD. The recording of the CD was financed by sales of a live, Ryan solo CD, Stages Volume II. Ryan was named the Best Local Male Vocalist in the 2007 Boston Local Music Awards, and won two awards the same year in the International Songwriting Competition. The band has become a regular on the festival circuit, and spent the past four months touring the country along side Martin Sexton (who produced Heavy on the Vine) as his opening act as well as his backing band for Martin’s own songs. Though the band has made a name for itself among the jamband crowd with a rigorous tour schedule, the real beauty lies in the poetic and lovely lyrics of the 33-year-old Villanova graduate, accentuated by the rhythmic roots rock from the six-piece band. The group has begun recording intimate videos of the 14 new tracks from Heavy on the Vine, and will post a new video each week until the new CD is released. Enjoy the video for the song “I Can’t Wait” below, and keep an eye out here at Mixed Media for the new videos each week until September 21st.
