"The
Big Dig" does "for Boston's local traffic nightmare
what the Kingston Trio did for the city's subway system four decades
ago [with Charlie and the MTA]" -
The Boston Globe
"Paul
Revere's Ride" - Longfellow gave us the words, but Americana
provides the ride.
"The
Boston Tea Party" - "342 chests of Inidan tea were
tossed over by indian wannabes. Now the harbor is tea instead of
sea, pollution in the service of liberty."
Americana's
most recent release, The Big Dig,
captures the unique experience of living and working in Boston.
Composed by Dr. Watson Reid and Berklee's Emmy award-winning professor,
Stephen Webber, the songs on this album satirize contemporary Boston
and enliven its history. The title song captured the attention of
The Boston Globe, the Improper Bostonian, and commuters
listening to local radio.
