Charly Bliss

The ’90s brought a melting pot of musical sounds. Electronic music found mainstream appeal, hip-hop had its heyday and rock music fractured into countless subgenres, many of which were corralled under the term “alternative.” But most folks who listened to alt-rock radio in the last great decade tend to think of chunky bar chords, titanic hooks and a sense of lyrically wry insouciance. Though they’re a relatively new group, Brooklyn’s Charly Bliss could easily slip in between ’90s icons such as Veruca Salt and the Breeders. Listening to their debut record, Guppy, you’d never know it came out in 2017. Check out Charly Bliss on Sunday, February 24, at the Higher Ground Showcase Lounge in South Burlington.
