Last Week’s Jams (10.9 – 10.13)

We’re getting to that point when everyone is scrambling to find their favorite tracks, find their favorite collection of songs to put into those fruitful lists that you’ll all look at, then claim to hate! We do it too! Still, covered a bunch of great new music last week. There were great new tunes from Red Pants and Teenage Tom Petties, plus we got to celebrate a really busy release week with stuff from Lightheaded and Upchuck, among others. Our friend Jared Leibowich had a new tune up, but it didn’t make it onto the DPSs yet, so be sure to circle back and check on that one. There’s a couple of long-burns too, from Native Cats, a Beacon School and the Uptights, all worthy of some deep listening. Stream on!

Captain Starlet Share Self-Portrait Single

We’ve been relying upon the good folks over at Safe Suburban Home Records to bring us great pop hits from the UK over the last few years, and they’ve got a great new AA single for your ears from Captain Starlet. The lead single, “Self-Portrait” here definitely recalls a very British sound, think of Teenage Fanclub without some of the fuzzier edges; I love how the chorus changes the direction, bringing in more of a classic pop rock sound. “Running Water” is a bit lighter, almost channeling a bit of surf rock in the strum of the guitars; the vocals also take on that light mist that washes upon you while you dip your toes in the seas. Check out the single below!
