Back in September, TVD presented the worldwide debut of “Ship Is Sinking,” the first single from Bon Bon Vivant’s new album Dancing in the Darkness. Click the link to read what I had to say. Since then the New Orleans-based, impossible-to-pigeonhole band has been generating positive attention for the release of the full-length album. It’s out today.
The collection is a comment on finding celebration in life even when things aren’t easy or going your way. I think we can all relate to that during this strange year. The album showcases the many musical and lyrical sides of the band. It has its dark moments, but it also relishes in the joy of being alive.
“Hell or High Water,” is a declaration that we must stick to our convictions no matter what. While “This Year” is the acknowledgement of losing loved ones along the journey.
Bon Bon Vivant will celebrate the release of the album tonight (12/4) at the Broad Theater’s outdoor, social distanced space. Tickets are available here.
