This is a side project for Jesy Fortino (Tiny Vipers) and Liz Harris (Grouper). This song demands the right mood, which is probably late, late at night, behind the wheel or after a couple of drinks. It’s an intense, but perfectly pitched dream, with just the faintest ominous haze to it. It’s intoxicating.
This sounds like Edward Sharpe w/ a splash of Avett Brothers. It couldn’t be any more different than the last song I linked. It’s a happy, feel good song that demands you sing along at maximum volume. My wife loves it.
The new Punch Brothers album is really good. No one takes you seriously when you mention a bluegrass band, but you really need to give these guys a shot. The new album even has their Kid A cover on there.
I am getting pretty excited to hear the upcoming Guards record… (no official release date yet).
If you happen to know or like Cults, this is the band fronted by Cults’ lead singer Madeline Follin’s brother.
I’ve been listening to the Do It Again single for the last few months. It’s still great. Turns out they made a video for it. I dont know how to post a direct link to the video, but I like it enough to recommend it:
BTW, if you are any kind of music lover, you owe it to yourself to own or at least try out high end headphones. It’s amazing how much better music sounds on them. Will open up new worlds.
