I don't review singles often; in fact, I haven't written about one in years. But when you hear a pop song as infectious as "Saturday," you are left with no choice but to sing its praises.
Singer/songwriter SCOTT CELANI has crafted a sunny jewel, a glowing slice of summer in the city good vibrations with toe-tapping jangling guitar and warm vocals. This is the kind of melodic rock that alternative radio stations used to spin before all the angst settled in and booted out Crowded House and Squeeze.
Celani's voice is somewhere between Billy Corgan of Smashing Pumpkins and Glen Phillips of Toad the Wet Sprocket; it soars with a whispered fragility that makes you hum every syllable. People still make music like this? Of course they do. Check out more from Celani at http://www.scottcelani.com.
