"Experience The Genre-Blending Magic of “The Harbor Song” By The Underground Rainbows"

The Underground Rainbows are the musical outfit of Eamon Murray, based out of Allentown, Pennsylvania. It started almost casually in 2018 when he was asked to perform at a friend’s wedding. The artist’s boundary-pushing musical approach allows him to straddle the realms of various genres such as EDM, punk rock, reggae, trance, techno, and psychedelic sounds, creating a genre-blending and distinctive sound that he is happy to be associated with.

The track “The Harbor Song” has had quite an evolution, dating back to the early 2000s when it was originally composed to the year 2020 when it was newly recorded but the file could not be retrieved due to technological mishaps. This version is derived from the 2020 recording, with a few improvisations here and there for the listener’s pleasure.

The mellifluous guitar sets the tone for the tune, slowly and gradually building up before the intriguing concoction of other percussive instruments and subtle nuances are integrated, adding to the song’s depth and sonic clarity.

The standout riffs and impressive vocal lines contribute to the song’s color and emotional resonance.

“The Harbor Song” creates a mood of relaxation and tranquility, best enjoyed with headphones on and volume up, and in a place with minimal to no distractions as you get drawn in, feel the music, and let it soothe your soul.

There is an inescapable punk rock influence, and the addition of a few melodic improvisations makes the song one of the tracks you want to listen to, sing, and whistle through the summer.

“The Harbor Song” is the very definition of a masterpiece from head to toe and a song that any music lover would appreciate adding to their playlist.

Already streaming on popular platforms, this is your chance to sink your teeth into this sublime body of work that has been lovingly arranged, immaculately produced, and terrifically executed! - Tunepical


"Pennsylvania-Based Band The Underground Rainbows’ “Strawberry Banana” Fully Lives Up To The Band’s Description!"

Versatile and dynamic at their roots, The Underground Rainbows take inspiration from a diverse range of musical styles, resulting in a refreshing and innovative EDM, Rock, Reggae, Punk Rock, and Trance experience. Fronted by music producer Eamon Murray, this musical outfit’s songs embrace powerful alternative rock choruses and intricate arrangements. What you get are thought-provoking themes with satire and an electric mix of musical styles, with the band’s capacity to combine emotional depth with musical ingenuity producing truly unique and rare gems, which are always a seamless fusion of retro and modern elements.

The track “Strawberry Banana” is a fine example of what the band can deliver, showcasing such artistic brilliance and genuine innovation. A track that was originally recorded as an improvisational reggae jam between Eamon Murray on guitar and his son Lennon on drums, Eamon has now manipulated the bass line and guitar riff as the core foundation of this track, and it comes out as a raw masterpiece!

Eamon’s passion is evident in this new version, painting an aural portrait of an artist with a mature understanding of songcraft, exceptional instrumental skills, and an immensely expressive voice.

I love the many sides to this track; the intro is chill and mellow yet powerful and engaging, with the reggae vibe accentuated by the guitar, bass licks, and expressive voice voice ingratiating themselves with the listener as the track continues to gain that upbeat and vibrant feel the more it advances.

As the track progresses, The Underground Rainbows deliver a timeless medley of powerful electric riffs, dynamic drums, deep bass lines, and confident vocals. The song masterfully swings from an infectious rock thrill back to its splendid reggae roots.

This is a magnificent and 10/10 performance by any measure, and it deserves to be under the spotlight and also part of your playlist.
