Houston Street/Blue Moon Heart single

Power Popaholic Records

The A-side to the latest single from Pop Top is hard, gritty punk rock about a street in New York City that really does exist. It talks about what it’s like to live on the street, how hard it is, and how tough.

The B-side is a blues rocker, alternately about a real bar, his dad, and how everything to do with the bar made him feel. While smoother than the A-side, it’s just as tough in the end. To read what he has to say about that part of his life and how it inspired the song, read my new interview with him.

So if you’re a fan like I am, you’ll welcome this new single, and if you’re new to him,  it serves as a good introduction to his work.
