Unpredictable progressions, intricate leads, and haunting melodies combine to form a completely original style that is The Blue Hit. The Blue Hit was born in Austin, TX in January of 2007. They have since been exploring new avenues in music, drawing inspiration from each other's experience and knowledge. It is obvious that they have a deep understanding of music theory and musicianship. They are all gears in the finely tuned musical machine that is The Blue Hit.
