“I have always felt that a good song is a good song whether it’s dressed up like a country song, punk rock song or show tune,” says Raneri. “That’s what I’ve done with Bayside for years. Take different styles of music and dress them up as punk rock. A lot of Bayside songs started out sounding more like show tunes and folk songs and we put a different spin on them. With the solo music, I let the songs stay where they originate.”
The album, out on June 30th, blurs the lines between all of Raneri’s different influences. For a sneak peak at what that means, check out the “Sorry State of Mind” video below:
