Bats & Mice Return!

Leave a comment

If the band name Bats & Mice doesn’t immediately ring a bell, I’m not sure anyone (including the band) would blame you as they’ve dormant for going on 12+ years. What was a promising career, with the high point being their last EP Back in Bat from 2010, halted shortly after with the band pausing all creative output to focus on life and other projects. Luckily for all of us fans, the Chapel Hill lads got back together late last year, made some tunes together again, and have a full album of material ready for release later this year. Of course an album announcement wouldn’t be fit without some new tunes to check out, so treat your ear holes to this new track “Buried Just Beyond.” This was well worth the wait.

The new album from Bats & Mice, PS: Seriously, is due out on May 31st via Lovitt Records.

Premiere: Committee(s) Read (Final) Flares

2 comments

Committee(s) have been working for a few years now, with Sean Husick organizing the group’s debut around various other projects by the members. What began as an after-show conversation between friends has completely evolved into the band’s first full-length, (Final) Flares. Members of the band have performed in acts such as Milemarker, Bats & Mice, as well as Sleepytime Trio, so it would suffice to say that noise and certain indie rock tendencies would be present. That said, the band take that history and spin it into this spinning piece of calming shoegaze. Guitar chords ring in the distance, but there’s this subtle harmony that works throughout the song’s six minutes. Boiled down, it’s a pop song, informed by the history of its members who’ve been working playing music longer than most of us have been reading about it (online, at least), crafting a style wholly their own at the moment. Their debut LP will be released by Lovitt Records on May 18th.
