Is it unreasonable to call Pan Am a rock ’n roll sensation? A little-known band suddenly and unexpectedly thrust into the spotlight of super-stardom? The next Beatles? Better than Oasis? Well, yes — these statements are totally unreasonable and, for the most part, entirely false. But don’t tell the band that! Teeming with energy, rhythm and excitement, Pan Am rocks an upbeat blend of original songs with sing-along choruses and plenty of feedback. Lead singer Steven Lundy channels the cool and grit of The Kink’s Ray Davies while his brother Gary compliments with sweet harmonies like those in other brother-bands such as the Wilsons (Beach Boys) and the Gallaghers (Oasis). Thumping on a sunburst Hofner, the bass-guitar Paul McCartney made famous, Dan Attanasio lays a melodic and bouncy foundation for the band. Sammy Perlmutter rounds out the bunch with chaotic — but never frivolous — beats in the style of Keith Moon or, say, Animal from the Muppets! Cramming multi-syllabic rhymes and snarky witticisms into seemingly effortless lyrics, Pan Am demands plenty singing-, humming- and clapping-along. And they're never short on rocking out.
