It’s always good to hear one of the old-time classics in our generation today.

With the rise of pop and electronic music, it’s a little rarer to see people appreciate music from the old days. On the street that day, people were able to acknowledge the beauty of old music as the band performed The Who’s “My Generation,” one of the most recognized tracks in their career.

The crowd claps along with the beat of the bands’ drums as they start into the song.

Right away, they connect with the crowd and with each other. Their smiles are so vibrant as each one of them plays their own part in the song. As soon they start singing, you can see how excited they are to share their talent.

Their vocals are something else too!

The lead vocalist was singing perfectly in his lower register and was complemented by the backing vocals. They were also faultless on their instruments. Despite all the dancing and moving around, they were still impressively accurate with their guitar and bass riffs. Throughout the whole performance, they bustle with energy and enthusiasm to give their audience a satisfying show.

As it turns out, some of their mannerisms may be a little familiar…

Are we the only ones getting the Elvis and Beatles vibes here?

The way they’re dressed up and the way they sing definitely reminds us of all the best artists of a bygone era. The lead singer’s voice has a deep and macho quality that definitely reminds us of Elvis Presley. On the other hand, the other two members accompany the lead with backing vocals that are as quirky and lively as the Beatles are. Moreover, their overall touch on the song gives you a more classic vibe than modern.

Needless to say, this band dominated the streets of Brighton that day!

The Big Push are an exciting new rock band made up of songwriting trio Ren, Romain Axisa and Gorran Kendall.

Drawing influences from classic British bands such as The Beatles or The Police, they turn their clever, modern compositions into wildly catchy pop songs. These individual buskers formed their band in Brighton, the vibrant coastal town. They were able to create a tasteful and original sound from fairly different backgrounds.
