Teddy Geiger: Underage Thinking
Who's Teddy Geiger?
He's a bright eyed 17 year old musician who got himself a role on the "dramedy" Love Monkey, which was then cancelled by CBS. The show was amazing, and so was Teddy, who played "Wayne," a young musician just making it big. Funny how life imitates art, yes?
Well, Master Geiger is now set to debut his first label release, "Underage Thinking," tomorrow. And here's what you need to know:
Take 2 parts John Mayer, 1 part Gavin Degraw, and 1 part "flavour of the week" and you've just about got Teddy Geiger. Solid lyrics, for a seventeen year old, good musical sense and talent, infectiously catching pop tunes. Geiger sticks to two instruments to drive his music: the guitar and the piano.
Any one with half a Top 40 radar will immediately recognize the tunes with IMMENSE radio play attractivity:
For You I Will (Confidence), Love is a Marathon, Air Dry, and These Walls, in that order. For the more acoustic set, Try Too Hard is the perfect match.
In the End: Between Geiger's painfully deep blue eyes, sometimes-saccharine sweet lyrics, and relatively young age, teenage girls will be begging parents for this album. If you can get past the obvious teenie bopper appeal, you can see a talent on the rise, one who may have a more mature, more intelligent album 2nd or 3rd release out. Those are the discs I look forward to. But this is a good start.
