Rock pop outfit Cheap Blue Yonder‘s first full-length release, titled ‘Light Sleeper,’ came out in March 2014. With tunes like "I’m Not Trying" and "When You Woke Up…" (streaming) that walk the balance beam between elegant melodies, dissonance and straightforward rock ‘n’ roll, Cheap Blue Yonder gives us music that’s hummable and intriguing at once. The band’s lighthearted stage presence, in a scene dominated by extremely serious musicians, is an extra plus. See them live when they play Rockwood Music Hall on Friday June 27.
