The outfit have a sound that melds vintage sensibilities with a more modern appeoach.
When you envision the sound of an band called The Pontiacs, the aesthetic that comes to mind is timeless, old school rock n’ roll in the same vein as artists like Bruce Springstein and The Gaslight Anthem.
Fortunately enough, that is exactly the vibe that outfit give off on their debut single ‘Ghost Town’, as they immediately establish themselves as musicians and storytellers that are deserving of your attention. There is a vintage feel to the riffs and the soulful vocals on display, and despite the track having quite a mellow and nature throughout, there is a real anthemic quality that permeates throughout the sound, destined to ignite drunken singalongs and bring people together. ‘Ghost Town’ is a thoughtful release that hints at a world of potential for The Pontiacs, and we can’t wait to see how things unfold for the five-piece.
