Catching Up with Fishboy
I’ve covered Fishboy on and off since we’ve been running this wee site, but Eric Michener’s so prolific that it’s admittedly tough to always stay up to date (that’s on me!). But, there’s a new record coming your way really soon titled Waitsgiving, and though I’m a few weeks late, why not celebrate that news hitting my desk by sharing this video! The music reminds me of a combination of Jay Reatard and Grandaddy, but maybe with the sort of idiosyncrasies in the lyrical playfulness included (which is the stable Fishboy mark!) with this earnest delivery. But, not sure which is greater, the song of the rad video? You decide! Then be sure to grab the LP, as it drops on April 2nd via Lauren Records.
