Bassist/pianist Benji Roberts (17), percussionist/lead vocalist Logan Moreno (14), drummer Antonio Nicasio (17), and guitarist Tristen Serpa (17) make up Blast, a band hailing from Hollywood, Florida. The guys, who have a background in musical theater and all contribute vocals, came together in 2013 to create their own pop/rock tunes. Their debut album, Evolution, has been a two year endeavor. “The album is something that we’ve been working on for a while now. For me, it really shows us exploring our musical abilities and actually putting them to work. It’s all about this theme of evolution, and I think you can see how we transition throughout the album,” said Roberts. These kids are a pretty tight-knit bunch of dudes who genuinely enjoy what they do. “I love making music with these three guys because they’re like my best friends, my brothers,” Tristen told us. When they aren’t laying down tracks or playing shows, some of the guys still perform in live theater, a passion that brought them together in the first place. An eclectic bunch of kids, Blast's musical tastes vary from showtunes to Journey to rap and even metal. For now, Blast is pretty content with making the music that they want to make, and that — hopefully — people will want to listen to. Of course, a record deal wouldn't hurt either. Whether in the studio improvising or jumping on stage in front of rapidly beating teenaged hearts, the guys seem to be enjoying every minute of their flowering music career. The guys in Blast can't wait to see where the future takes them, which — judging by the sugar-sweet melodies and devilish good looks — might very well be glued to the inside of many high school lockers.
