New Tune from Trudy and the Romance
Having followed Trudy and the Romance for some time, I’m rather impressed with the sounds coming out from their forthcoming LP, Sandman. It’s weird, as weird little jazzy inflections lurk in murky background, from tinkering keys to horn blasts; I think this is where the doo-wop vibe comes in for the song title. Otherwise, this is a swelling blast of beautiful orchestral pop; it almost feels like this is what the National or the Walkmen would sound like if they were a wee bit younger. I don’t care what kind of pop fan you are, you’re really going to want to spin this before the band blows up. Sandman drops on May 24th.
