Blueburst is the musical brainchild of Craig Douglas Miller (The Reach), collaborating with legendary guitarist Marty Willson-Piper (the church, Noctorum) to release his first new music in 20 years. With Blueburst, Miller and Willson-Piper have created lush, guitar-based alternative rock, firmly rooted in 80s alternative and post-punk, but with a timeless feel and foot-pounding pace. In a world of often overproduced, slick alternative rock, Blueburst is unapologetically retro in style, proudly wearing its old-wave influences on its sleeve. “Most of my friends, and a lot of younger people as well, are still listening to the albums we grew up with, I think because there’s a rawness and honesty in that music. That’s what we aspired to here,” says Miller.
