There always seems to be a cycle in the popularity of music. What was big in the 50’s became a style again in the 80’s, and what was big in the 80’s recycled its popularity into the 2010’s. I guess this is good news for The Romantics, a 1980’s new wave band highly inspired by 1950’s style rock and roll, and still performing strong today. The Romantics are so well loved because they have a diverse range of styles. They can mix 1950’s rock and roll with the bass driven grooves of the 1980’s, and it is a style that every living generation can respect. The band has also been referred to as a power pop band due to their economical way of delivering a direct and catchy performance. The band knows how to write a straight-forward rock song and perform it in such a way that grabs the audience’s attention immediately. The Romantic’s still give off their 80’s vibe dressing in new wave attire such as bright red vests, skinny ties, and black leather jackets. They also give an energetic performance making sure the audience is having a good time. When they play the song “What I Like About You” they make sure to incite the audience to sing along with every word. During their performance of “Talking In Your Sleep” there is not one audience member who can resist dancing to the song.
Whether your taste of music is in 1950’s rock and roll, the sounds of new wave, or more recent pop music, The Romantics are never to disappoint. They will awe you with their classic hits and they might play some catchy tunes off of their newest release, 61/49.
