music Blurting Out Breaking Bad's "Baby Blue" Behold the blurts' video for their cover of Badfinger's "Baby Blue"
Gotta love the deadpan vocals combined with the weirdly merry sounds of a melodica. Albuquerque's top living-room pop act, the blurts , recently provided the musical entertainment for the Walter White funeral reception at Vernon's Hidden Steakhouse. If you couldn't afford the steep ticket price for that event, you can catch them at Blackbird Buvette this Saturday where they will be participating in The Music Lab , a monthly event featuring quick performances by a bunch of local bands. Check out the blurts' other fine recordings on ReverbNation .
