Ceylon Sailor - the tiny wave EP.




I've been loving this EP and wanting to tell you all about it. It is finally here. Unusually, for a Brooklyn band, this is wonderfully gentle Power Pop The five piece master melody with ease and venture towards Indie Pop vocally.

There's even some wonderful Brass accompaniment on the songs. All are as catchy as catchy can be. Well produced, arranged and performed. The title track has been constantly played here, a pacier affair amongst the four songs.



Candy is more straight ahead Power Pop with hints of 70s Pop. It is the surprises that hit you most on the song, the drum rolls, the 80s synth reminders and most of all that splendid Brass that enhances each and every song.

The Brass Intro on Sold Me Down is killer, as is the chorus. Never And Ever is an Epic collection, a real fanfare. The arrangements are stellar and really mark the material distant from the ordinary. These sort of songs used to be everyday, but not any more, meaning that The Tiny Wave is a real bolt from the blue. Great stuff!



You can listen to and buy the album here.
