Teenbird shares upcoming album

Driven by the creative energy of founder Mário Hailer Jr., Teenbird is a rock band with a fervent passion for classic rock and the untamed spirit of rock n’ roll’s ethos. With heavy riffs and bold guitar solos, Teenbird draws on the influences of hard rock and metal to shape a sound that filters their vintage influences through a modern sonic lens. This fusion of rock heritage with the freedom of modern production allows Teenbird to deliver music without limits, capturing the unrefined energy and rebelliousness that lies at the heart of their sonic vision. As Mário says, “Our sound is just straightforward rock, as we like it to be.”

Making their explosive entrance in June 2021, they dropped their debut single “Good Times Rock’ n Roll” which they followed up with a string of tracks in the build up to their first full-length record, First Flight the next year. Earlier this year they released the six-track EP, Road Trip Songs which celebrated freedom, adventure and the open road. The EP distilled the joy of hitting the highway, with each track capturing the carefree spirit of life on the move, soundtracked by gritty guitar lines and spirited vocals.

Now, Teenbird is ready to take their listeners on yet another sonic journey with the release of their second album, Rockin’ the Road. With this latest record, they expand on the themes of adventure and exploration, blending cover songs with new original tracks. This time, Rockin’ the Road features seven carefully chosen cover tracks that pay tribute to rock’s legendary anthems, paired with five new compositions that channel the band’s unique sound and love for the style. Set to drop on Friday 15th November, the band gave us a preview of what they’ve got in store on the album.

Kicked off with the first original track “What U Do What U Get” injects instant rock flair with lively drum rolls and scorching lead guitar licks before the commanding vocal leads enter to spin gripping melodic leads above the chugging guitar riffs and pounding drums. Flowing with bright vocal hooks and rousing rock instrumentation, it’s an epic showcase of their memorable songwriting flair and slick performance talent.

The first cover sees them take on Quiet Riot’s classic “Cum On Feel The Noize” to deliver a thrilling rendition that stays true to the original version while putting their own spin on this enduring rock anthem. “Rock Your Soul,” another original track from Teenbird starts with the gritty twang of guitar as the pulse of bass and steady punch of drums builds up the energy before the vocals take you on a swaggering classic rock jam brimming with impactful energy, stomping rhythm and soaring melodic lines.

Other highlights include their take on “Route 66” by The Rolling Stones, a cover which sees Teenbird reimagine the track in a more metal vibe with crunching guitar tones, splashy drums, belted vocal performance and daring lead guitar work to breathe electrifying new life into the song in spectacular fashion. Looking to one of their early influences, they put their put on AC/DC’s “Highway To Hell,” delivering a sensational cover of the beloved song, putting their musicianship skill and extraordinary vocal ability on full display.

With the finale track, their original song “Free Ride Life” casts a smokey desert rock scene with hazy acoustic guitar and gritty electric flickers before erupting with storming lead riffs and striking drums. Taking the listener on a raucous rock rollercoaster, they serve up an incredible voyage that offers the perfect taste of their sound with blistering guitar solos, robust vocals and thumping rhythms for a memorable finale to the album. From start to finish, Rockin’ the Road presents a stellar demonstration of Teenbird’s original songwriting and knack for reframing classic music in new and exciting ways. If you’re a fan of classic or modern rock music, Rockin’ the Road is certainly a release to look forward to.
