My great friend, Dennis at Poprock Record, made me aware of this joyful trio from Knoxville, Tennessee. He covered their three EPs in the past year beautifully here. I cover the latest EP which offers up four very different songs, each of which will appeal to the Guitar Pop sensibilities here.
The songs offer up variety, with big choruses, great melody and some stunning harmonies. Essentially Power Pop, certainly two of them purely are, with a real sidekick of clever arrangements and lyrically adept, the whole EP is a cracker.
I Liked You Better is pure wit, sang in a geeky way with an engaging barrel piano lead and a chorus that offers up ace vocal harmonies. Cowards is more Classic Power Pop with a rhythm section that underpins the song and a great Guitar track.
Tekken Liberties goes back further with its mix of 60s Merseybeat and 80s New Wave and leads up to wonderful closer. Space Bees is wonderful slightly 80s anthemic Pop with a Pop Rock overtone that totally grabs you. Four songs that reveal so much promise, I can't wait for more.
You can listen to and buy the EP here. All 3 EPs are worthy of a physical album release.
