Enjoying the New Alexei Shishkin
As much as we wish we could cover it all, you’re bound to miss a thing here or there, which is why I wanted to be sure you checked in on the latest release from Alexei Shishkin. Despite Shishkin’s known allegiance to the Doug Martsch songwriting academy, I really think he’s stretched himself into some territory that puts him nearer towards the likes of Jeffrey Lewis or Calvin Johnson, especially if you take the single below as an example. It’s got this DIY aesthetic that you’ll pick up on immediately, but the wordplay and wit has this subtle charm that should keep you coming back to Goodbye Sunrise.
