Barefoot Soldiers

About Me


Download Barefoot Soldiers on iTunes
Barefoot Soldiers are Tim Hogan and Jon Lorentz from Buffalo, NY. Two Troubadours on a continuing quest to re-invent the pop ballad. The Barefoot Soldiers’ sound can be generically categorized as modern pop/rock, but an often haunted quality heard in the vocals lends it to the more apt description: “Ghost Pop.” There is a strange sense of nostalgia built into an original sound.
The future of the Barefoot Soldiers is promising. Hogan and Lorentz recently completed their Demo/EP, “Late Arrival,” producing it themselves using Pro Tools in a small studio in Lorentz’s basement. The vocals and instrumentation on the demo were performed solely by Tim and Jon. With help from violinist Veronica Scotto on the track "The Way She Moves."
Through a ten year history of musical partnership the duo have gone from naive 17 year-olds blindly convinced they were on the brink of legendary status, to 25 year-old song writers who do it—not because they crave fame and fortune. Now they do it because they know they just wouldn't be happy doing anything else.
shh!

Ok. I'm fairly computer retarded, and I can't figure out how to convert a m4a file into an mp3 file on a mac. Therefore, I will upload the songs on a different computer tomorrow or the next day. Co...
