Album Notes

The Bards of Balance entertain, inform and inspire people with our original acoustic folk rock music. We perform original humanitarian songs about community, freedom and balance; along with modern protest songs about greed, power, idolatry and the modern threat of misinformation. Reviewers and fans compare our music to Frank Zappa, Led Zeppelin, Dispatch, Dan Fogelberg, The Mountain Goats, They Must Be Giants, Talking Heads and Pink Floyd. Yeah, we're confused by that, too. Reviewers and fans have praised us for provocative lyrics, melodic hooks, lively instrumentals and engaging vocals. Restoring Balance is our original legacy album released here on CD Baby in 2009. Since then our band has expanded with a new violinist and we will be releasing all of our songs as singles. Catch our music videos on The Bards of Balance You Tube channel.

REVIEWS

Interesting collection of Acoustic Folk/Pop music
author: Matt M. and the RadioIndy.com Reviewer Team
                            
The Bards of Balance have a different goal than most artists out there and their music proves to be quite interesting. Their album, "Restoring Balance" is a collection of Folk/Pop music written by the band leader Kirk Sinclair to coincide with his book "Systems out of Balance." The music obviously has a lot to say, seeing as it's taken from the 564 page epic from Sinclair. The feeling of the album is some mix of acoustic Dan Fogelberg music mixed with The Schoolhouse Rock sound. The track "Middle Class Harmony" is a good example of this combination. They try to change their style a bit from song to song as you can hear on, “I'm Working," which has steel drums giving it a tropical island feel. "Restoring Balance" features interesting and entertaining lyrics of economical, political, and cultural inclinations and if you are looking to hear something new and original with a Folk/Pop feel then take a listen.

The Bards of Balance are fantastic. Not only have they mastered a fluent, folk-meets-soft-rock sound, but they also have a true purpose. Their message rings clear amid a unique and addicting sound. They're definitely worth checking out and following!!
