New Music from People Get Ready

peopleJust when I thought I was ready to give up on well-crafted pop music like the National, this tune from People Get Ready jammed itself into my inbox.  At first I was struck by the vocals, as that’s usually a huge draw for me as a listener.  Then the construction of the song took a hold of me, as I marveled at some of the careful guitar work and the backing vocals that fill in some gaps.  It’s a pretty interesting sound, and I think it’s worthy of your time on this Thursday.   The group will be releasing their new album, Physiques via Brassland on June 24th, so stay tuned for more great tracks.

New Tunes from People Get Ready

We’re slowly recovering from an extensive weekend at Austin City Limits, so I’m grateful that we’ve got this solid track from People Get Ready for you to enjoy.  It begins with a slow steady rhythm, and it builds and builds, but only briefly erupts near the end of the song.  It’s interesting to say the least, but it’s got a light spirit to it, which is exactly what my body needs today; I’m sure everyone leaving or living in Austin agrees!  You can check out the group’s self-titled album when it hits stores on October 23rd.
