Jangly Boston power-pop -- not too punk, not too metal, just good guitar-driven songs in the vein of Counting Crows, Goo Goo Dolls, Wallflowers, Radiohead.
Bio / Background
File under: Radio-friendly power-pop. Named by The Boston Herald as one of 5 outstanding local releases of the year 2000, Miss Fortune's debut full-length appeals to fans of artists like U2, Jeff Buckley, Jellyfish, Radiohead, and the Wallflowers. The band's heartfelt songcraft and passionate delivery will excite even serious pop snobs.
Guitarist Jay Barclay and his friends, drummer Chris Hobbick and bassist Jon Hindmarsh, posted a 'singer wanted' ad on a bulletin board in early 1999. Ryan Link responded to the ad, having just relocated to Boston from his hometown of Seattle. Barclay had written most of the songs already, and Link contributed a couple of his own to their set (one, "If You Died", appears on this CD).
The band "toured" New England and the Northeast extensively through 2001.
Link moved to New York shortly thereafter to pursue an acting career. He is now starring as Roger Davis in the long-running rock opera RENT, on Broadway.
