REVIEW: Across The Board “Sonic Boom”

Posted on August 14, 2018 by mtsmanagement in news, Reviews, Rock // 1 Comment

Jacqueline Auguste and her life partner Andy Ramjattan (bass player for the band), founded Across The Board in 2013 out of a desire to move their garage and back yard jams to social media. They created a popular cover webseries, “Pick Up & Play” now in its 5th season on Youtube, and decided to take their show on the road with the debut album “JANE ON FIRE”, released in June of 2016. Since then, Across The Board has played to sold-out crowds across Ontario, and from Newfoundland to Vancouver. Recipients of four international music awards for work on “JANE ON FIRE” and “AMENDS”, ATB is set to take off yet again on tour this spring and summer across Southern Ontario and into Quebec and the Maritimes with “SONIC BOOM”. ATB is a 2018 Josie Music Awards nominee.

This was peculiar, because when I listened to the music I thought I was just going to listen to any other rock band with a “hard” edge, until Jackie Auguste sang. Her voice gives a whole new dimension to the music, which is quite interesting. First singles “Sonic Boom” and “It Shouldn’t Be This Hard” become hard and soft at the same time–which is their best asset. All in all, they’re nice, they’re melodic. “Nothing To Say” is sheer perfection in a song. – Lady Stardust
