So don&#8217;t feel bad when this is your first taste of the band, It&#8217;s mine too. That first taste is exquisite though. There is a sense of familiarity to the sound of Big City, and they seem to draw influences from all cardinal directions of &#8217;70s rock &#8216;n&#8217; roll. Artists that come to mind while listening to this LP include Bruce Springsteen, Thin Lizzy, New York Dolls, Todd Rundgren, Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers, David Bowie and Big Star. And yet, the songs on <em>Big Kisses<\/em> never sound redundant. Despite the somewhat lo-fi production, you can tell that this is a talented group of musicians: plenty of layers, plenty of dynamics and plenty of instruments. I&#8217;m really curious how the music of Big City translates to a live setting &#8211; likely even better.<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=3871981033\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=de270f\/tracklist=false\/artwork=small\/transparent=true\/\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/yofc.bandcamp.com\/album\/big-kisses\">Big Kisses by BIG CITY<\/a><\/iframe><br \/>\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=3871981033\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=de270f\/tracklist=false\/artwork=small\/track=3277896358\/transparent=true\/\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/yofc.bandcamp.com\/album\/big-kisses\">Big Kisses by BIG CITY<\/a><\/iframe><br \/>\nAdd to wantlist: <a href=\"https:\/\/yofc.bandcamp.com\/album\/big-kisses\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bandcamp<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Although NYC glamr&#8217;n&#8217;r outfit Big City started out in 2013, Big Kisses is only their first LP.
