Eight years of incessant touring with 600 plus shows across 35 states, it is with great excitement and anticipation Bump presents “Forward.” Their third album marks an exciting and thrilling new direction in the bands’ sound; nine songs of progressive tones, three part harmonies and attractive and intricate layering create an approachable form of indie pop rock. Held up in the Bunker in Royal Oak, MI with producer/engineer Dan Currie, the band set out to create an album that would be distinctly different than albums past. The goal was simple; write interesting and musically inclined songs that translated to both the CD and the live performance. Having already completed a nine-week, 20 state tour in support of “Forward,” the album has already drawn striking reviews.
