Gabriella Cohen Signs to Captured Tracks

This song and announcement deserves some love today, even if you’ve already heard Gabriella Cohen‘s Full Closure and No Details. Captured Tracks just announced they’ve added the Aussie songwriter to their stable, after already adding the smoky voice of Molly Burch. Here, there’s a bit more of a dreamier aspect in Cohen’s voice, with the music reminiscent of a polished Shannon and the Clams; the chords hide in the background and backing vocals harmonize with the natural melody. I’m in, so I’ll definitely be picking up a copy of the record when it’s reissued on March 3rd.

Sun Voyager Return With Another Banger

Brooklyn based rockers Sun Voyager is a band that has long earned praise here on ATH. Their music is always heavy and always rocking, similar to bands like Ty Segall or even local group Swords. Today they’ve shared with me this incredible new track “Trip”. If you were dragging on your Friday morning, this song will surely wake your ass up and set you right. Enjoy.

Sun Voyager will be releasing their debut self-titled LP soon. Stay tuned.

Dig on New Music from The Dig (SXSW Artist)

The Dig have graced our pages here before, and with this new single, I’m still backing the band as a group built for success in 2017. On this tune, the band continues their musical shape-shifting, channeling a blend of glam and new age psychedelia. Piano work allows for the song to sustain a natural bounce to it, with guitars and added synths circling overhead. The vocals have this androgynous tone, fitting for a tune about astronauts. Their album Bloodshot Tokyo will appear on February 3rd via Roll Call Records. And, like the post says, they’ll be in attendance for SXSW this year, for those of you in Austin for the festival.

Dreamy Rock From Tashaki Miyaki

Tashaki Miyaki may not be on your radar yet, but that’s about to change quite soon. This L.A.trio are making hazy dream rock that has enough fuzz on it to soften the edges. “Girls on T.V.” is a nice slice of the kind of rock music that you’d want to hear somewhere while wearing sunglasses and sipping on a frosty beverage. The honeyed vocals provide a nice contrast to the grungey guitars, and the even-tempered beat begs you to chill out with the band for a few minutes of your day. Take a listen below and get ready for their debut album called The Dream, which will be out April 7th via Metropolis Records.

Brand New Peaness

Not sure how I let this rocker from Peaness slide under the radar, but just a few days ago the band tossed out this rad new single. I love how the song has this driving energy, though the riffs pull back just enough to keep the song from blasting away. In the chorus, you get a playful delivery that really, spun in a quick turn that almost comes off like a delightful pop rap. I almost wish these ladies would finish up an album already, but for now, enjoy a brand new 7 inch that comes out this Friday via Odd Box Records.

Did You Catch This New Video From Tim Darcy?

If you weren’t already well aware of a little band called Ought, you should probably fix that really quickly and then do some acquainting with the solo project of the lead vocalist with Tim Darcy. The best way for you to do so is by watching the video below, which is Darcy’s latest single from his upcoming solo release. “Still Waking Up” is a brief glimmer of sincerity from a voice that you’ve come toexpect cynicism and sarcasm from. It’s quite refreshing, and the music video will have you harkening back to your John Hughes cinema days. Take a listen and watch below.

Saturday Night is out February 17th via Jagjaguwar. Go pre-order that here.

Spiraling Rock From Imaginary People

Imaginary People are a five piece out of New York and they’ve got a song for you about ‘an incompetent politician,’ which honestly, seems to be a little too prevalent in our lives atthe moment. However, when I took a listen to “Mr. Hesitance,” I couldn’t help but dig the track– the vocals immediately strike you with their raw vibrato, but then the drums really kick in and you’re hooked.By the end of the song, the instruments take over and you get some slick solos to close out the tune. It’s a great track that reminds me a bit of The Twilight Sad, but slightly less heavy. Take a listen and get ready for the band’s upcoming sophomore LP,October Alice, which will be out April 28th.

Deep Throat Choir Release New Music

As a kid that was attached toOmaha music scene in the early 00s, Tilly and the Wall was one of those bands that turned me onto to a broader spectrum of pop music. Why does that matter with Deep Throat Choir? Well, I think the band’s approach to songwriting is similar, layering various textures on top of each other, particularly in the way the vocals swirl and overlap on their latest single. You just can’t turn yourself away from the innocent playfulness, and you find yourself coming back to press play over and over. Bella Union will be releasing the band’s album Be Ok on February 17th, and I think it’s going to be a special listen that lasts throughout the year.

More Pop Hits from Dag

I don’t know how the Aussie folks do it, but Dag is just another group in the long line of hitmakers coming across the sea. This particular tune seems to hit some discordant notes, only forcing you to focus more closely on the song’s construction…well-played. The casual attitude is perfect for the verses, wearing a heavy male vocal; it’s joined by a female counterpart during the choruses, which kicks up the endearing factor ten fold. This tune appears on the band’s new LP, Benefits of Solitude, and it should only be a matter of time before the rest of the States start clamoring for these guys; look for the LP on February 24th via Bedroom Suck Records.
