Episode 71: Pollyanna Blue: Rocking Hopeful Upheaval Eat Sleep Breathe Music

    • Musik

Today on the podcast we are featuring the Bristol-based alt-rock band Pollyanna Blue. Learn more about them and listen to their track “Strong Enough.”



About Pollyanna Blue: Pollyanna Blue was formed in the summer of 2019 by Zoe Collins (guitar and vocals) and Rich Earle (Bass and vocals). Their name was inspired by a self-help book ‘Feel The Fear And Do It Anyway’, which talks about a nickname ‘Pollyanna’, typically given to a person who is deemed overly optimistic. That ethos, blended with the waves of difficult emotions life throws at you, creates a concept of musical juxtaposition within the 90s/00s alt-rock atmosphere which sees the now-three-piece wield their self-discovery, vulnerability and love of music to create something authentic and raw to connect with anyone experiencing some type of hardship.
