Indie music enthusiasts, prepare to be captivated by the enchanting sounds of “The Muster Point Project” as they unveil their fifth single, “The Little Things,” from their thought-provoking 5-song EP. This creative collaboration with Canadian novelist Geoff Moore adds a unique dimension to the band’s music, and Moore himself has some poignant thoughts on the song’s theme.
Moore reflects, “Small graces. When I was young, I wanted everything. When you’re young, you should want everything. Things didn’t shake down the way I planned. Now that I qualify for the senior discounts at Smitty’s and IHOP, I’m relieved they didn’t. The irony is that my working life was spent in advertising, selling. I’ve got a better handle on everything now. I look at the state of the world today and, boy, I’m glad to be my age, but I’m painfully aware of all I’ll miss when I’m gone. “The Little Things” is an upbeat, jangle pop-infused indie rock track that’s bound to resonate with fans of the genre. It embodies a unique blend of storytelling, with influences ranging from the likes of John Prine and Tom Petty to Chuck Berry and more.
While the band has been busy in the studio crafting this EP, they’re gearing up for its release, marking the culmination of a creative journey that’s taken them from punky jingles to thought-provoking tunes. And here’s a fun fact for you – some of the scorching guitar solos were recorded on a guitar worth a mere $25, proving that it’s not about the price tag but the magic that music can create. With a tantalizing mix of musical influences and the added depth of storytelling from novelist Geoff Moore, “The Little Things” and the entire EP promise to be a memorable listening experience. Kevin Franco, the driving force behind The Munster Point Project, aptly sums it up: “Working with a novelist has added incredible depth to the storytelling of ‘The Little Things’ and the other songs on our EP.” So, get ready to embark on a musical journey that’s as captivating as it is thought-provoking.
